CAD visualization is known as a cost-effective means to enable engineering staff to import, export, and interact with multiple CAD formats. SpinFire Enterprise makes the same technology available to everyone in the organization to boost Communication, Collaboration, and Comprehension (Actify’s three “C’s”).
“CAD viewers provide a much-needed alternative to high-end CAD software seats, but their full potential value is diminished when only a select few users have access,” said Dave Opsahl, CEO of Actify. “We introduced our unlimited use approach in response to customers who were frustrated with the inconvenience and administrative burden imposed by juggling a finite number of SpinFire seats among ever more users seeking access. We have witnessed a transformation when organizations adopt SpinFire Enterprise. Just about anytime people are discussing parts and products, the conversation is enhanced by the ability to visualize and interrogate the 3D model.”
When access to SpinFire is unlimited, sales teams can markup designs while meeting with customers, manufacturing and quality teams can check specifications and tolerances on the shopfloor, and everyone has access to design information at their desk, on the road, or when working from home. Users find SpinFire easy to use and some Actify customers now include it in the standard PC configuration for every employee. Additionally, a single SpinFire subscription consolidates the cost of licensing and managing multiple viewers and ensures consistent interpretation of CAD models thereby reducing errors.
“SpinFire is the backbone of how we do business,” said Jeff Hearn, Director of IT at Royal Power Solutions. “We use SpinFire as a unified tool. When suppliers send us data, SpinFire gives us that vendor neutral ability to be able to import from any format, whether it’s NX, Solidworks, AutoCAD, etc., and then also share information with those suppliers and other stakeholders. We also don't have to worry about giving up trade secrets - we can just show portions of the dye or the tool that we're trying to make, and that allows us to get the materials that we need specific for the build-out.”
SpinFire provides access to all major CAD formats and empowers users across the
extended enterprise to inspect and interact with CAD files. It enhances workers’ ability to
collaborate with customers and suppliers, as well as with internal teams, to improve productivity, accelerate communication, and eliminate mistakes.
