Capture performance, integrated modelling
A grip that works around the part
The multi-position handle supports one-handed scanning from the top, side or underside, helping operators stay comfortable as they move around complex geometry.
Keep scan feedback in view
The integrated display keeps distance, coverage and scanner controls close to the object, so the operator can stay focused even when the computer is out of sight.
Feel when the scan needs attention
Recognisable vibration patterns provide immediate guidance on scanning conditions, helping the operator react without breaking their movement around the part.
From real part to editable CAD model
Peel 3 Pro.CAD combines the handheld scanner with software designed around scan data. Capture geometry, align and clean the mesh, sketch from extracted profiles, model prismatic features, compare the result and export a production-ready model.
Trace critical profiles and apply constraints around the original design intent.
Turn sketches and extracted features into editable geometry.
Use deviation analysis to check the model against the scan.
Six-step workflow
Keep the whole reverse engineering journey connected
Each stage is designed around scan-derived geometry, reducing exports and repeated clean-up between separate tools.
1Scan the object
Capture the part while Peel.OS shows covered and missing areas in real time.
2Finalise and align
Clean, optimise and align the mesh so it is ready for reverse engineering.
3Sketch
Trace critical shapes from extracted profiles and constrain the design intent.
4Model
Build editable geometry and extract prismatic features from the scan.
5Compare and refine
Check deviations between the model and scan, then adjust where it matters.
6Export
Send the finished model onward in a compatible CAD format or transfer the modelling timeline to SolidWorks.
Purpose-built for scan data
The interface brings alignment, extraction, sketching, modelling and inspection together. The result is less back-and-forth between scanning and general CAD tools, while standard exports keep the finished model useful downstream.
Everything needed for the first scan
The Peel.OS and Peel.CAD Pro software package brings the scanner, protected transport and core workflow tools together, ready for evaluation, setup and operator training.
Choose the Peel package that matches your output
All three configurations use the same Peel 3 scanner hardware. The difference is how far the included software takes you after capture.

Where Pro.CAD earns its place
Built for parts that need to become models
The integrated toolset is strongest when the end result must be editable, comparable and ready for another engineering step.

- Legacy equipment
- Replacement parts
- Repair and modification
Aftermarket and tuning
Capture vehicle components and packaging constraints before designing a replacement or retrofit.
- Performance parts
- EV conversions
- Component retrofits
Product design
Turn handmade, modified or legacy objects into editable reference geometry for a new design.

peel 3 Pro.CAD questions
What is the difference between Peel.CAD and Peel.CAD Pro?
Peel.CAD extracts entities, surfaces and cross-sections so you can continue in another CAD package. Peel.CAD Pro adds sketching, modelling, model comparison and a more complete scan-to-CAD workflow inside the Peel environment.
How does the SolidWorks hand-off work?
Peel.CAD Pro can transfer the modelling timeline to SolidWorks so sketches and model operations can continue as native components. For other CAD systems, use the supported model and entity exchange formats.
Can the result be used for 3D printing?
Yes. Peel.CAD Pro can export STL for additive manufacturing, as well as CAD exchange formats for engineering and production workflows.
Are positioning targets always required?
No. Peel 3 can position from geometry, targets and texture. Targets are particularly useful on flatter or smoother surfaces, or when accuracy is the priority.
Can we test it on one of our parts?
Yes. That is the recommended way to evaluate the package. Bring a representative part and the required downstream deliverable so we can test capture, modelling and export together.
What local support is available?
Professional CAD Systems provides New Zealand-based evaluation, setup, training and technical support. We will also confirm the current hardware, software and protection-plan terms in your quote.
