Detailed information
Compact and Comprehensive – Powerful Yet Effortless Surgical Control
The Cube α system integrates a range of unique features to provide a comprehensive and user-friendly platform for performing cataract surgery. It is equipped with next-generation ultrasound technology that enables more powerful and effective phacoemulsification, enhancing both precision and surgical safety.
Gyro Torsional Technology – Precision Cutting with Enhanced Efficiency
The Cube α surgical system integrates Gyro torsional technology into a compact design, delivering ultrasound energy more efficiently, particularly for moderate-density cataracts. Torsional oscillation reduces thermal impact and improves surgical accuracy, while design enhancements contribute to the protection of intraocular tissues and enhance overall safety.
The specially designed Gyro tip features a relatively straight shape, making intraocular maneuvers smoother and more intuitive for the surgeon. This straight configuration also helps reduce fluid turbulence during lens emulsification, increasing surgical efficiency and chamber stability throughout the procedure.
Efficient performance
The Cube α system enables faster and more effective lens fragmentation through the torsional movement of the Gyro handpiece, which optimizes ultrasound energy delivery. Torsional oscillation also improves holdability by reducing the repulsive interaction between the nucleus and the phaco tip that typically occurs with longitudinal ultrasound.
Fluid dynamics are further enhanced by the improved stiffness profile of the new Neo Sleeve series. These sleeves maintain their shape even under wound compression, supporting stable fluid control within the capsule and improving followability throughout the procedure.
The system also offers variable ultrasound settings, combining torsional and longitudinal oscillations to tailor performance based on surgical technique and nucleus density. Surgeons can intuitively control power and pulse duty through the foot pedal, allowing for flexible and precise operation.
Բարձրացված անվտանգություն — Աչքի ներսի հյուսվածքների պաշտպանություն վիրահատության ընթացքում
The Cube α system is engineered to maximize surgical safety by maintaining intraocular stability and minimizing tissue trauma. A newly designed sleeve ensures improved irrigation flow into the eye, effectively supporting a stable anterior chamber throughout the procedure. Compared to previous sleeve models, post-occlusion surge is significantly reduced, providing a more consistent and reliable surgical environment.
Additionally, the Gyro tip features a specially crafted end, finished with a blast process that gently rounds and textures the edge. This unique design helps reduce the risk of ocular tissue damage during phacoemulsification, further contributing to safer outcomes.
Selectable Tubing – Flexible Setup for Every Surgical Need
The Cube α system is available in two models based on the tubing configuration. The CV-9000 model uses a single-use cassette system, offering optimal hygiene and fast preparation, while the CV-9000R model supports reusable tubing for a more cost-effective and environmentally conscious solution. This flexibility allows clinics to select the setup that best fits their workflow and operational preferences.
User-Friendly Interface – Intuitive Control at Your Fingertips
The Cube α system integrates a modern intelligent control system that combines advanced technology with intuitive functionality. The ProPedal mode allows precise customization of vacuum level, aspiration rate, and ultrasound power for each foot pedal position. The smooth linear control gives surgeons highly sensitive and accurate response throughout the procedure. The multi-functional foot pedal features six side switches that can be individually programmed to perform key tasks such as switching modes or adjusting bottle height—without needing to use the touchscreen during surgery. The touchscreen display is clean and easy to navigate, presenting key parameters in large, readable text. Surgeons can quickly adjust settings using pop-up windows, keeping their focus on the operation. To support new users, the system includes a Navi mode, offering step-by-step visual guidance for connecting accessories and preparing the device. Together, these features make Cube α not only powerful and precise, but also one of the most surgeon-friendly systems in the operating room.
