peel 2 CAM Professional-Grade 3D Scanner

peel 3d announced the availability of peel 2 CAD, the next generation of its professional-grade 3D scanner. peel 2 CAD is an easy-to-use and fully integrated 3D scanning solution that enables users to extract all the information they need from 3D scans and send them directly to their preferred CAD software, including SolidWorks Inventor and PTC.

Objects of many sizes and surfaces can be scanned — without any prep work — as the 3D scanner recognizes shapes automatically. With an impressive accuracy of up to 0.100 mm (0.004 in.) and volumetric accuracy 0.300 mm/m (0.0036 in./ft.), peel 2 CAD features all the tools required to process geometric entities, surfaces and cross sections. Users can then export scan data to their CAD software in an array of output formats, including .iges, .step and .dxf.

With peel 2 CAD, 3D scanning to CAD software becomes a four-step breeze:

1. Scan the object

2. Finalize mesh

3. Extract entities and surfaces

4. Export to CAD software

peel 2 CAD also comes with a calibration certificate so that users gain peace of mind that they are not sacrificing on performance.

“peel 2 CAD makes setting up and carrying out 3D scanning with CAD software effortless,” explained François Leclerc, the head lead for the peel 3d initiative. “Thanks to this new solution, users can slash the time spent processing scan files and spend more time on their innovative projects or more value-added tasks.”
