Virtual Reality Solutions
SpinFire XR supports Virtual Reality technology, bringing 3D designs to life and allowing global teams to collaborate in fully immersive environments - without the cost or hassle of travel.
Our SpinFire XR experiences for Virtual Reality enable you to work collaboratively with your colleagues and suppliers, at full scale and in context. Below are all our experiences that can be used in Virtual Reality:
Visualize 3D CAD data at full scale and in context to interrogate the data in Augmented, Mixed and Virtual Reality devices.
Streamline design reviews to improve quality and reduce rework. Quickly assess design intent, verify manufacturability, and gather actionable feedback so issues are identified and resolved before they become costly problems.
Collaboratively design and optimize work cells, production lines, or entire facilities in full scale, reducing costly physical changes and minimizing downtime.
Our Extended Reality (XR) experiences support the following Virtual Reality headsets:
HTC VIVE, VIVE Pro & VIVE Focus 3
Meta Quest 2, Meta Quest 3 and Meta Quest Pro
To view your CAD data in VR, use the Visualization Pipeline, an enterprise ready, fully automated solution that optimizes complex CAD files into lightweight, device ready formats. Once processed, the data is instantly accessible for use in VR or across any supported XR platforms and devices.
By simply dragging and dropping your data or using “save as” from within your CAD session, the Visualization Pipeline will automatically optimize your data and prepare it to be used in your VR headset.
The Visualization Pipeline supports many input formats, these include CATIA V5, 3DEXPERIENCE, CREO, NX and JT with the option of a variety of outputs, depending upon your requirements.
ATM manufacturer NCR (National Cash Registers) revolutionised their design review and prototyping processes with the help of Virtual Reality, saving an estimated £390,000 in their first year with a ROI in under two months!
Their process prior to using Virtual Reality was to physically manufacture multiple versions of the product to conduct their design review, before sending the final design to production.

Virtual Reality (VR) provides an immersive 3D environment where engineers and stakeholders can interact with digital product models at full scale and in context without needing physical prototypes or dedicated facilities.
In engineering and manufacturing, VR helps address critical challenges such as delayed design validation, costly late stage changes and communication breakdowns between distributed teams. Instead of reviewing static CAD files on 2D screens, teams can meet virtually to evaluate design intent, catch potential issues early and align on decisions faster.
Adopting VR not only accelerates product development cycles but also reduces travel, material waste and physical resource dependencies, ultimately improving collaboration, reducing costs, and supporting more agile, sustainable operations.
Yes. SpinFire XR supports remote multi-user collaboration between virtual reality (VR) and other supported XR devices.
Cross functional teams often face delays and misalignment due to communication gaps and lack of shared access to design data. SpinFire XR solves this by enabling real time, multi user collaboration on 3D engineering models using supported XR devices, without requiring teams to be in the same physical location.
Whether you're in a meeting room, working remotely or distributed across global sites, teams can come together in a shared virtual space to review designs at full scale, catch errors early, and align faster on key decisions.
