Q-Mark Product Spotlight: Cube Squared

Cube Squared

Q-Mark clients are creative. They constantly offer us ideas for new or improved products, ideas that spring from real-life, on-the-job issues. A prime example is the Cube Squared (Fig. 1, above), a hand-held gadget that squares adapter plate cubes to a CMM’s X and Y axes in less than one minute. And, as if that wasn’t a good enough idea, someone else suggested making it adjustable to any angle. So, the Cube Squared Plus was born (Fig. 2, above). The Cube Squared Plus sets the cube to any angle between zero and ninety degrees. Both Cube Squared designs are popular with CMM operators all over the world. And, both were proposed by Q-Mark clients.

Several items in our catalog were originally suggested by clients. I’m grateful to folks who take the time and effort to describe their ideas to us. It’s said that ideas are among the most important things on earth. Everything begins with an idea.
