Introduction

Injection moulding is one of the many processes adopted for shoe manufacture. Injection moulding of shoes with rubber as soling material by vulcanization process is very popular. It attained popularity during the early 1960's when PVC followed by PU were developed for use as soling materials. Injection moulded shoes has certain advantages over other shoes and is still one of the preferred methods for manufacture of shoes.


Market Potential

The international market for shoes is dominated by Italy, China, Thailand, Indonesia, India and some other South East Asian countries. The footwear industry in all major developed countries is showing a decreased trend due to a rise in the cost of production. Shoes being a low technology and high labour intensive product, India stands a favourable chance to be the largest exporter of footwear. The Indian domestic market is also huge and there is a lot of scope for setting up units manufacturing injection moulded shoes.

Technical Aspects

Process of Manufacture

The graded patterns of the components of the selected design are clicked for upper and lining materials and passed on to closing section for making the upper. In closing section, the edges are skived and components stitched and eyelets fixed as per buyers specification. In the making section, the insole is stapled to the making last, shank attached, the upper is then lasted over the last either by adhesive or tacks. Bottom roughing of the lasting allowance is done which can be a little over the lasting edge. The shank is attached securely by tacks and heel filler is attached in seat area to cut down PVC around the heel, shorten cooling time and prevents distortion of head shape. A one part or two part polyurethane adhesive is applied by machine or hand brush over the whole bottom only in case of PVC and not required for PU and is completely dried. The shoe is slipped from the making last and put on to alloy last mould. The shoe in the inverted position is then slid into the injection moulding machine. The side and sole moulds close and lock into position. Molten PVC is then injected into the mould, cutting off supply when full. It is then cooled by refrigeration chamber and moulds unlock after cooling time and shoe unloaded. The spue is then removed. Shoe is then send for finishing and then checked and packed. For PU injection moulding a different kind of injection moulding machine is used which is more critical. Expanded PVC is now a days popular as soling material. Vulcanized rubber soles are still in use.


Quality Control and Standards

The quality of footwear is guided by the physical and chemical properties of the material, destructive test on footwear and wear trials. Various organizations like SATRA, BLMRA, SLTC (UK), CTC (France), TNO (Netherlands), PFI (Germany), VESLIC (Switzerland), ALCA, ASTM (USA) and CLRI(India) have contributed to achieve quality standards for footwear and footwear materials. Test procedures and testing equipments of Bally (Switzerland) and SATRA (UK) and specification of British Standard (BS), German Standards (DIN) and international standards (ISO) are widely used. In India BIS (Bureau of Indian Standards) have worked out specifications for various footwear and footwear materials. Shoes are to be manufactured as per the buyer's specification.
