Tailored for labor-intensive shoe manufacturing, our shoe-making automation solution adopts 3D vision scanning and offline programming technology to realize automatic trajectory generation for sole gluing and polishing. Replacing traditional manual teaching, it builds standardized process databases, supports intelligent iteration and remote management, greatly improving production efficiency and process consistency for shoe sole processing.
Case Details
Shoe‑making is labor‑intensive. Due to non‑standard shoe‑sole patterns, traditional manual robot teaching for gluing and polishing is inefficient, which becomes a bottleneck for automation.
Based on 3D vision and offline programming, Zhiliuxing’s solution automatically extracts sole trajectories and generates robot programs. Adopting upper‑computer mode instead of controller‑based programming, it realizes data‑driven intelligent process management, process database building, remote monitoring and iterative upgrade.
