The Duplicate Study command creates a copy of the active plastics
simulation study. The duplicate study is saved in the form of a new SOLIDWORKS
Configuration. The SOLIDWORKS ConfigurationManager can then be used to navigate between
multiple plastic simulation studies.
To open the Duplicate Study dialog box:
- In the
SOLIDWORKS Plastics CommandManager, click Duplicate Study.
Duplicate Study
The need for multiple simulation studies occurs as you investigate the manufacturability of a particular plastic part. For example, you can create duplicate studies to save and compare results from simulations with different materials, meshes, and boundary conditions.

Specify new
configuration name
|
Type the name of the new plastics
simulation study. The name of the new configuration is listed in
ConfigurationManager as NewStudyName [part
name]. |
|
Copy without results
|
Select to duplicate a plastics
study without copying the simulation results database. This is
useful when you want to modify study settings and rerun the
simulation. |
