| Riven Accelerates Product Introduction with 3D Reality. Quickly Diagnose and Fix Deviations from Design Intent. Reach better decisions with your team and customers.New Product Introduction (NPI) is the most critical stage of manufacturing and it’s broken. An overwhelming majority of companies miss critical ship dates and suffer cost overrunsdue to NPI issues. Our experience designing and manufacturing thousands of physical products led us to deeply understand the costly mistakes, inefficiencies and frustration caused by sparse, error-prone analog 2D information and poor communication during NPI. These perpetual problems are only getting worse with shorter product windows, more geometrically complex products, higher quality expectations, engineering capacity constraints and fragile supply chains.Riven accelerates product introduction by vastly simplifying how teams develop, iterate and build physical products. Riven fixes broken workflows and enables everyone across the supply chain to work together – visually – on the same product by applying ‘rich as-made’ 3D part insights and digital models. By combining accurate digital 3D copies of real physical 3D parts with intelligent, collaborative software, we are creating a digital-first NPI workflow that improves customer responsiveness, time-to-market, part accuracy and production processes while minimizing development iterations and waste.Riven software is used today by innovative manufacturers across a variety of production methods including additive manufacturing, injection molding, casting and press & sinter. It was founded in 2017 and headquartered in Berkeley, California, United States. | Seed / Jun 28, 2019 | ||
