As we know, there are two main categories of shoes, one is the cement shoes, also known as hand made shoes, and another one is injection shoes. You may like to know what’s the difference between these two production methods. Here are the answers.
- Different production methods
Injection shoe is footwear made by a machine. Sold material is injected directly from a barrel into a mold for veneer, fabric or leather uppers. After the upper is tied on the aluminum last, the turntable machine directly injects PVC, TPR and other materials to form the sole at one time. Injection molding at a certain temperature and pressure gives the upper and sole a certain degree of elasticity and elasticity.
The cement shoe is what we generally call handmade shoes. It is a method in which glue is manually applied to the connection between the sole and the upper, and then bonded by heat treatment.
- Different cost prices
Injection shoes can be produced in large quantities, so the price is more competitive. Due to machine pressure during production, the product is of good quality and it is not easy to open the glue.
However, cement shoes require more labor and more processing, and its workmanship are better. So the daily output of cement shoes shoes is less, which leads to a relatively higher price.
- Different style
For injection shoes, injection production is suitable for simple shoes with bulk production. Also, the upper material is also limited.
For cement shoes, they can be widely suitable for more upper material, and production can be more flexible, which can produce exquisite footwear.
