FocusMonitor FM+ PowerMonitor Combination

The combination of the PRIMES FocusMonitor FM+ and the PowerMonitor enables comprehensive measurement of focused laser beam parameters and power in a single setup. In addition to power measurement, the system enables safe, long-term stable absorption of the entire laser radiation, completing the analysis of focused beams. This combination supports measurement of a wide range of processing lasers across multiple applications. From remote welding of copper-based alloys with high-power visible lasers to CO₂ flatbed cutting systems, virtually all areas of high-power laser material processing can be analyzed.

For high-precision power measurement, different versions of the PowerMonitor are available for average powers up to 25 kW (PM 100) or with special functionalities such as electronic self-calibration (EC-PM).

More detailed information on the FocusMonitor FM+ or PowerMonitor can be found in the sections for each individual device.
