Kaba Peaks Preferred Technical Manual page 47

Cutting Keys by Code
Peaks tolerances are tighter than most other brands. Both depth and spacing must be held within +/-
0.002" for proper key operation. Key machines should be periodically gauged to maintain tolerances.
Framon #2
Contact Framon at 517-354-5623 regarding a Peaks tip stop. Use the bitting specifications in
this manual.
Framon KX-1
The KX-1 cuts 140 - 6 pin keys
Framon FRA-2001
This machine is computer operated and a Peaks vise jaw is required.
HPC Codemax The following are the correct DSD numbers for Peaks.
140, 6-pin
A2 DSD608, A jaw/red tip stop
A4 DSD612, A jaw/red tip stop
Codemax cuts all keys bow to tip. Peaks systems are written tip to bow.
Reverse the bittings on factory lists.
HPC/LaGard 1200CM
HPC manufactures the following A2 system card for Peaks:
140, 6-pin: HPC card number CPKS1
red tip stop, standard A jaw
The modified B vise jaw required to cut Peaks keys on the 1200CM is available from Kaba.
Spacing on HPC cards is bow to tip. When using a factory bitting list, reverse the bittings. In December
1996, HPC began to provide a calibration kit for the 1200, part no. CMB-CK. A spacing calibration key is
available from Kaba to check the accuracy of the space adjustment. Because of rack-and-pinion back-
lash, better keys may be produced by reversing the bittings and cutting bow to tip.
Machines purchased after September 1992 already have Peaks data installed and the key rest milled to
ITL9000
accommodate the bottom peak.
Use 0.140" spacing disc. The 0.0125" depth disc is used for A2 system. The 0.021" depth disc is used
ILCO Universal II
for A4 system. Use tip stop on the 27B key rest. For 6-pin keys, chamfer the corner of the key rest for
bottom peak clearance.
Duplication
Automatic duplicating machines like the ILCO #017 currently require field modification of the vise jaw for
the bottom peak. As of August 1992, Rytan machines are manufactured with a divot in the jaw.
