Stratasys acquires the Riven software company

Stratasys announced the acquisition of Riven, a CAD software quality control company. The American startup based in Berkeley, California, is already a software development partner of Stratasys, and now its cloud-based solution will be fully integrated with the GrabCAD Additive Manufacturing Platform.

Riven’s cloud-based software helps customers quickly check, diagnose, and automatically correct deviations between CAD files and actual 3D printed parts, resulting in more accurate dimensional tolerance at a lower total cost. The new version of the software uses artificial intelligence to automatically, pre-adjust models for 3D printing.

Component inspection can be a significant bottleneck in the production process, in many cases causing delays of weeks or months. By integrating Riven’s software with a closed 3D printing process, Stratasys will be able to help its customers 3D print end-use parts while reducing waste through fewer iterations to improve sustainability.

The acquisition, which ended in October 2022, covered all intellectual property related to Warp Adaptive Modeling (WAM) and Predictive WAM (PWAM). Riven team members will be integrated into the Stratasys Software business unit.
