The SpinFire 5.0 product family provides the first scalable solution enabling companies to host, share and manage product design information securely, regardless of the CAD file type.
Actify's CAD importers are modules that enable its SpinFire Professional and Actify Server software to open CAD files without the use of a CAD system.
Actify CAD importers open and read files from all major CAD systems, and convert them into Actify's compact, secure and shareable 3D file format.

"We are pleased Actify is helping extend the reach of this standard throughout the manufacturing chain, and that Actify recognises the need for accurate file conversions.
Customers can always trust importer technologies developed with native PLM Vis JT technologies from EDS and our recent agreement with Actify ensures that all customers using and relying upon PLM Vis JT data are well supported regardless of the data version being used".
"Our agreement with EDS PLM Solutions is an important milestone in Actify's ongoing efforts to serve the automotive industry and to compliment EDS' efforts behind JT", says Actify President and CEO, Randy Ochs.
"The JT format is a standard in the supply chain for many manufacturers.
