The article “Peel 3: The New Generation of Cost-effective Handheld 3D Scanners”, written by Kubler (2022), introduces the features and uses of the new Peel 3 from the company Peel 3D™ – a new generation of affordable and versatile professional-grade 3D scanners aimed to improve the experience for professional users across multiple industries. The Peel 3's design features two cameras for geometry and surface identification, a newly added camera for texture and colour recognition, infrared and LED lights, an infrared projector, an improved LCD touchscreen, haptic feedback and an integrated scan-to-CAD software called Peel.OS. According to Hanaphy (n.d.), the scanner comes in two different versions, the Peel 3 designed for general use, and the Peel 3 CAD, designed specifically for reverse engineering purposes. Priced at USD 8,700 and USD 12,285 respectively, both versions offer a fully integrated 3D scanning solution, the Peel 3 allows users to easily produce high-quality scans at an affordable price. Compared to previous iterations, the Peel 3 has improved ergonomics and user-device interaction. Additionally, it delivers heightened accuracy and precision. The Peel 3 can be used in a wide field of applications including but not limited to augmented and virtual reality, healthcare, engineering, education and the preservation of historical artifacts. With several unique features and functions, Creaform's Peel 3 CAD 3D scanner stands out amongst its predecessors and competitors by offering superior performance capabilities and versatility across various applications.
With several unique features and functions, Creaform's Peel 3 CAD 3D scanner stands out amongst its predecessors and competitors in terms of performance and versatility in applications. Peel 3 CAD 3D scanner introduces a distinctive multi-grip triangulated handle, meticulously crafted for comfort in the most common 3D scanning positions. This innovative design ensures ergonomic ease, facilitating seamless scanning experiences. Moreover, its multi-functional and intuitive touchscreen provides users with a brand-new way to interact with the scanner. Notably, it doubles as a distance matter, enabling scanning without the need to constantly refer to a computer screen. The Peel 3 also incorporates distinctive vibration patterns, serving as recognisable guides in navigating narrow and hard-to-reach areas without a direct line of sight. This combination of ergonomic design and advanced functionality establishes the Peel 3 as a pioneering tool in 3D scanning.
