“Actify has been a long-term user of our HOOPS technology, and we share the common objective of unlocking the true value of 3D CAD files for manufacturing enterprises and their supply chains,” said Ron Fritz, CEO of Tech Soft 3D. “SpinFire has established a strong market position, and we are enthusiastic about leveraging our extensive expertise to enhance collaboration across engineering teams, particularly in handling feedback and client change requests.”

The company will still provide core intellectual property to developers, and the SpinFire team will continue delivering future products and providing support to customers and the global reseller network.

“Over the years, Actify has harnessed the power of core component technologies from Tech Soft 3D. They are engineering innovators, and our teams are well acquainted with each other’s code base and working practices. I am confident about what we can achieve together,” said Dave Opsahl, CEO of Actify.

This acquisition marks a significant step for the company’s position in engineering software development and enhanced solutions in the CAD viewing, CAD data translation, and collaboration space.
