Fill Analysis Enhancements

There are several enhancements for the Fill analysis.

  • The Fill analysis is 25% faster when using fiber-filled materials for plastic parts.
  • The Fill analysis predicts weld lines and air traps even in instances of short shots. For example, the image above shows a short shot (left) and the predicted air traps (right) for a fill analysis of a part.
  • Rendering of fill-time animations in isosurface mode has been significantly accelerated (up to 75%) for large models with a high number of elements. The memory required to generate the fill-time animations has also increased, as SOLIDWORKS Plastics uses all available memory resources for animation generation.
  • The isosurface animation of fill-time plots saved in AVI format has a smoother appearance with significantly reduced lag because the delay time between successive result frames decreased.
