Tips to Cut PSA HU83 Key with Xhorse Dolphin XP005

 Problem:

When I tried to cut a Citroen Jumpy key with a HU83 blade in my Xhorse Dolphin XP005, I had this problem. It fit properly in the door lock, but not in the ignition cylinder. Afterwards, I looked at the detail in the attached photo. Could this be the reason why the key didn’t fit properly?

Solution:

The end of the key likely isn’t actually cut properly. If you held the original and new key up together they would be slightly different at the tips/last bitting. Use universal duplication to cut HU83 with extra bitting.
Other people with the same issue. So as long as the machine is calibrated right, it decoded it properly, and the key actually was HU83 and not VA2, then it will just be that same bug, it’s nothing you’ve done wrong apart from maybe not comparing the keys after you cut them.

 

We’ve experienced the same problem, and the issue lies not with the cut, but with the key not passing dust lid you need to file tip of the key narrow to pass it. Just done the same hu83 for 308 today, file tip a bit and it will work.

Xhorse CONDOR XC-TWINS Avoid Probe Breaking

 Have you ever worried about damaging your Key Cutting Machine‘s probe while decoding or cutting tricky keys?If so, you’re not alone. Many traditional key cutting machines rely on conductive probes that are prone to breaking – especially when working with difficult or non-standard keys. That’s where the Xhorse CONDOR XC-TWINS stands out.

Unlike machines such as the Dolphin series, which use conductive probes, the CONDOR XC-TWINS comes with a built-in pressure sensor on the probe side. This smart feature detects resistance in real-time and adjusts accordingly, effectively preventing probe breakage during operation.

What Does This Mean in Practice?

Thanks to this advanced sensor technology, the CONDOR XC-TWINS can handle a wide variety of keys safely and accurately, including:

1. Plastic keys
2. Aluminum keys
3. Residential snake groove keys with narrow grooves
4. Dirty or poorly conductive keys

 

All of these can be learned directly by the machine – no extra adjustments or special tools needed.

Benefits at a Glance:

• Durability: No more broken probes or costly replacements.
• Versatility: Works with materials and key types that other machines struggle with.
• Reliability: Enhanced stability and accuracy for consistent, professional results.

Whether you’re a locksmith, security professional, or key cutter, the CONDOR XC-TWINS offers a safer, smarter, and more efficient way to decode and duplicate keys – without the downtime or frustration of broken probes.
