Case Study: Fva GmbH accelerates driveline simulation and 3D modeling with Spatial

Fva Gmbh speeds driveline simulation with Spatial’s 3D SDKs and 30+ years of modeling expertise

FVA GmbH, a developer of analysis and simulation software for the driveline industry, faced a challenge with its in-house 3D modeling solution. The approach lacked essential functionality like Boolean operations, could not support finite element analysis (FEA) meshing, and made calculating mass or volume difficult. This forced FVA to spend significant engineering time creating new modeling routines instead of focusing on its core simulation competencies.

By partnering with Spatial and implementing its 3D ACIS Modeler kernel, FVA gained a rich API for precise 3D modeling. Spatial’s solution provided the necessary Boolean operations, powered fast meshing for FEA with 3D Precise Mesh, and enabled best-in-class CAD interoperability with 3D InterOp. This integration allowed FVA to quickly develop a feature-rich and robust modeling package, freeing its team to focus on numerical simulations and respond faster to new customer requirements.
