WHAT DOES THIS MACHINE OFFER AUTO LOCKSMITHS?

Worried about using this tool in your mobile work van? You needn't be! The Gymkana comes complete with a fastening kit, the brackets, and the option for you to make this machine portable, but we can get into that later.
WHAT MAKES THIS TOOL A MUST YEAR ON YEAR?
This machine really packs a punch.
With its powerful technology, the key-cutting machine can considerably reduce the time spent on a job. In addition, its sturdy design makes it perfect for all work situations. The machine is operated by Keyline Liger software, which is synonymous with reliability.
The intuitive design allows for a wide, well-lit working area, allowing auto locksmiths to easily cut flip keys and emergency keys. In addition, the safety screen is kept closed during the key-cutting process, which guarantees cleanliness and operating safety. The cutter speed and the axes are adjustable to adapt to all materials. In addition, the cutter changes easily to minimise the margin of error.
LET'S STAY CONNECTED
The Gymkana is Bluetooth and WIFI compatible, meaning it can be connected to your Android smartphone or tablet, giving you the option to switch to mobile mode.
With the Keyline Duplicating Tool Smart App, the Gymkana machine is exceptionally user-friendly and equipped with simplified screen prompts. In addition, this mode allows the machine's software to be continuously updated, giving you a quick start-up time and simplified functions.
AN ALL-IN-ONE CLAMP
The Gymkana comes with a universal U clamp, which is self-aligning for most laser and double-sided edge-cut keys. Combined with a single cutter and tracer, this unique clamp also eliminates the need for tip-stops or adaptors, reducing the number of necessary tools to a minimum!

WHAT DOES OUR PRODUCT TESTING TEAM HAVE TO SAY?
Display: The screen that comes with it is highly detailed; to me, detail is king. Well, to any locksmith worth their salt.
The sheer amount of information it carries that works in conjunction with the screen are in tandem with that. All those profiles don't just blur into one mess when they have loads of space and excellent diagrams to accompany them.
Cutter and tracer quality: Yes, they cost much more, but you absolutely get what you pay for. You'll go through many cheaper alternatives before changing just one item on a Gymkana.
Unrivalled Data History: Excellent archive and history options. You can store and label specifically the things you want, or it will record every cut you do, so if you do forget, you can trawl through previous cuts that you might need to return to. One-click, loaded and ready to go.
Quality Build: Excellent quality of build - lightweight but sturdy. Not high metal usage in the exterior shell, so if you do have it mobile on a van, it's far less likely to rust or seize and trust me, I'VE SEEN IT HAPPEN!
