In this study, to develop a flash-less mold for forming of shoe-midsole, experiments and forming analysis were carried out. In order to reduce the extra-materials, the final preform has been modified by the experiment of pressure forming at the room temperature. To measure the contact status of parting surface of mold, the pressure film has been used. The midsole mold of the wedge structure type has been developed for the improvement of the contact status. The vertical pressing mold structure was introduced for the production of a flash-less midsole. By the investigation, flash of shoe-midsole was considerably reduced.

우리나라는 신발 생산 특히 부품소재 부분에서 세계적인 경쟁력을 갖추고 있는 것으로 평가되고 있으며, 이 중 E.V.A midsole은 가볍고 충격흡수성 등과 같은 특성이 매우 우수하여 샌달의 midsole 부품으로 널리 사용되고 있지만 현재의 midsole 제조방식은 생산성의 한계에 직면하고 있다. 즉, 패턴 갑피(upper)와 Phylon mold를 각각 생산한 후 별도의 공정에서 두 제품을 접착하여 샌달을 만들기 때문에 두 제품을 따로 생산하므로 현재와 같은 방식의 제조에 의한 기존 방식의 샌달은 제작비용의 증가 및 생산성 저하 등의 여러 가지 문제점을 가지고 있어 보다 새로운 일체형 자동화 사출 mold에 의한 샌달 제조방식의 필요성이 절실한 실정에 있다.(중략)

This paper describes two major techniques; image processing and gas vent insert and rejection control, for efficient gas vent exchange and holes detecting on the shoes mold. The key idea is to detect holes on the mold to select which holes to insert and to reject automatically guide center of hole's position. This allows us to save labor time while minimizing defective rate of PU shoes mold forming and production costs for gas vent exchange such as insertion and rejection.. Our experimental results have demonstrated that the hole's detection and gasvent exchange mechanism are more efficient and provide accurate mechanism to mitigate risks of vent injection/rejection failures.
