Actify CAD File Importers Overview

The relevant CAD Importer seamlessly imports native CAD files into SpinFire to allow you to view, print, mark-up and interrogate the data. You can then share these results with our FREE Reader.

Actify CAD importers allow you to access native CAD files without the use of a CAD system. Importers open and read files from all major CAD systems, allowing SpinFire Professional to publish all major CAD files into Actify's compact and secure .3D file format.

The .3D file format makes sharing designs much faster and safer than exchanging CAD files. The .3D files can be less than 10% of original CAD file sizes, allowing for secure distribution of files that cannot be input into CAD or CAM packages.

In its latest release, Actify has added several newly supported CAD formats, and has leveraged technology that radically improves the speed and quality of CAD file conversion to .3D for most of its CAD file importers. Testing has shown increased speed improvements of 5X to 10X.

Please download the latest Specification Sheet to find out which CAD formats are supported.

If you are a current customer with maintenance, please go to customer login for free importer updates to access this improved technology.

Standard and optional importers for CAD formats may be purchased separately or in special bundles.
