Without the innovation and progress of modern shoe making technology, there is no rapid development of modern shoe making industry. The rapid rise of China's footwear industry has become a major shoe making country, is the introduction of a large number of modern advanced machine shoe technology is not open. The introduction of shoe making technology has experienced two stages, the introduction of hardware and the introduction of software. The introduction of the so-called hardware, that is, the introduction of foreign advanced shoe-making equipment. The introduction of a large number of shoe-making equipment not only changed the traditional mode of production and production concept, improve the level of technical equipment, but also greatly promoted the development of domestic shoe-making equipment. The so-called software is introduced, along with the foreign footwear industry to a large number of China's large-scale transfer and joint ventures set up, foreign technology, technology, management personnel are also added to the joint venture, which makes the management of product design, production process, the level has been greatly improved, to solve the technical problems to be solved for a long time because of the introduction of simple equipment the. Has experienced two stages after the introduction of hardware and software, China's footwear industry has entered a stage of rapid development, becoming the world's attention. However, the shoe-making power is not a shoe power, we only have the advantage of the quantity and the quality of the advantages, product technology content and added value is still at a low level. Only in terms of shoe technology, mainly in product design and shoe manufacturing process in two areas, resulting in the production of footwear products are still in the middle and low grades. Although a small number of products can achieve high level, but because they do not have independent intellectual property rights, can only get cheap processing fees, the average price of the export products is still less than the international market price. If the Chinese footwear industry more than and 20 years of rapid development mainly rely on the introduction of shoe-making equipment and technology introduction, then the greater the future development of the footwear industry should mainly rely on product innovation and process innovation, because in today's economy and the era of knowledge economy, only technological innovation is the fundamental driving force to the sustainable development of the footwear industry.
Footwear design and technology, equipment manufacturing and process equipment, still did not go beyond the introduction of technology level, chronic simple repetition and imitation is nowadays shoe. Even if the product design from "shape" to imitate the "spirit", can not go beyond the original state, because it is no innovation, no vitality of the arts. The machine shoe process, still can not get rid of the introduction of "indigestion" pain, accounting for footwear products adhesive production above the "degumming" phenomenon still bothers to improve the quality of the product. Although manufacturing equipment can basically meet the needs of the production process, has become the main technical equipment of most enterprises, but almost all imitation equipment introduction stage, and even imitation, and the quality of the products and the introduction of equipment there is a big gap. Process equipment, is still one of the key factors restricting the quality of shoes products, especially the production level of the main tools of the assembly and the shoe parts still can not meet the technical conditions of high-grade products.
So far, after nearly 30 years of exploration, development, innovation and development, types of shoe-making machinery gradually complete, constantly improve the performance, a substantial increase in the number of the most shoe making process has realized mechanization, has made an important contribution to the development of the footwear industry. Advanced shoe-making equipment, but also contains advanced technology, technology, materials, and other new scientific and technological achievements, otherwise the footwear equipment will be the lack of innovation and development of the conditions and power. With the rapid development of economy and the increasing competition in the market, footwear consumption significantly accelerate the pace, consumer behavior and consumer products more personalized and diversified, put forward higher requirements on the footwear product quality and ability of quick response to the market. At the same time, it also makes the innovation and development of shoe-making equipment have new opportunities and challenges. The human is moving towards the information age, with the rapid development of micro electronics, information, new materials and systems science as the representative of a new generation of Engineering Science and technology, innovation, design of shoemaking equipment structure and control, function and efficiency has a great role in promoting. The key equipment in the existing shoe innovation model into production applications, such as computer product design and expansion system, high energy beam and jet cutting die cutting machine, CNC machine, CNC stretch before help stretch after the help of sewing machines, CNC machine, CNC grinding machine and help foot brush glue etc.. The irregularity of the shape of the products and parts of the shoes and the individuation and diversification of the shoes, which restrict the further improvement of the product quality and the production efficiency of the existing shoe making equipment. Seize the production characteristics of footwear products and footwear industry, combining with the production practice conditions, using the advantages of new technology and new materials, new models of innovation with independent intellectual property rights, is one of the main factors to improve the competitive ability of China's footwear market. Continue to imitate the era of intellectual property footwear equipment has been or is about to end, the introduction of high-tech footwear equipment will pay a higher price. A shoe, if you do not have their own technology innovation and intellectual property rights, and simply introduce the innovation, market competitiveness will be lost, shoe-making power status will be shaken, the shoe will not be able to achieve the dream of power.
