[Video] Kayser Automotive

My name is Simon Czaya, I'm 33 years old and state certificated engineer and work for the Kayser Automotive Systems GmbH as a product developer. We are a globally active system supplier since the 1960s for the automotive. We are a traditional German automotive supplier with a headquarters in the middle of Germany and factories all over the world like in the USA, Poland, and China for example. We have 3,500 employees all over the world and do everything in-house, started from the designing, the validation, to the product directly. Our products are for nearly every OEM customer like BMW, Volvo, GM, just to name a few.

We produce automotive components in the tank system and vehicle interior like pipes, filters, air ducts, electrical and mechanical vales, activated carbon canisters, and new energy systems from development testing up to the serial production. We use the SpinFire CAD visualization software for fast visualization of CAD components from internal and external CAD departments. It's a good solution for fast checking if our parts fit in the given space from the OEM or especially for plastic components, the demolding angles and wall thicknesses.

In our company nearly every department use SpinFire for fast checking of single or assembled parts and components from the development up to the shipping department for checking the size of parts to calculate the best packaging. It's good to use the SpinFire Enterprise solution because we don't need expensive licenses for different and special CAD systems, because all our customers use different systems like Siemens NX, Catia, or Creo. It would be very expensive to have a license for every employee here in our company for each CAD system. SpinFire is a program for all different common CAD systems, and we don't need special expensive training license or purchase prices for these systems.

For all colleagues from our different countries, language packages are available so that everyone can use it in this home language. We switched from the single place license to SpinFire Enterprise to save the installation input and it is now possible to work offline with the SpinFire system.
