Cube M
The Cube M is an advanced version of the established Cube, designed to meet the demands of high power densities in confined spaces. Remote applications up to 2 kW and measurements even in the corners of your Additive Manufacturing machine are its strengths. The unique optical front end allows measuring power densities of up to 250 kW/cm² with an angle of incidence of ± 20°. This highly sophisticated optical front end is taken into account during calibration and does therefore deliver the highest accuracy.

Using the PRIMES Cube App for Mobile Devices with Android™, you can operate and monitor all Cube models simply and conveniently on a tablet or smartphone via Bluetooth. Entire measuring series can be recorded during the measurement or uploaded from the internal storage (14 measurements) of the Cube. It will graphically display the measured values, such as average or peak power, energy per pulse, and pulse duration. The Cube App also supplements this information with the standard deviations.
