現今人們對於健康保健越來越重視,且功能性鞋墊使用者越來越多,快速製作客製化鞋墊,現有技術都無法滿足,因此有開發新製程的必要。如何開發客製化鞋墊製程,使顧客在最短的時間,取得為其量身訂做的鞋墊,將有市場的前景。 本研究提出雙材料複合式,以及客製化全鞋墊的概念,其中底層選用材質較硬之泛用型鞋墊,能有效支撐身體重量,表層與足底接觸部分使用軟性材料,能有效增加舒適性,此軟墊層也是本研究需設計與加工部份。在設計方面,將此軟墊設計為客製化全鞋墊型式,能有效穩固足部且能符合足部形狀,達到分散壓力與減低壓力最大峰值的效果;在加工方面,本研究提出新的製程方法,利用真空吸盤將此軟性鞋墊材料吸附住,配合3軸NC雕刻機加工,能節省以往加工機所需之夾持工作。使用大直徑的球銑刀,及最佳化的刀間距,減短總加工路徑以達到縮短加工時間,同時能使加工後之鞋墊材料擁有平滑的表面。完成加工後,自行設計抽真空機台,將泛用型鞋墊與加工完成之全鞋墊軟材,在抽真空機台內部等壓的狀態下,平均地黏合兩層鞋墊材料,且能防止一般壓合的氣泡問題,即完成客製化鞋墊之製作。本研究製程,可在短時間內完成一雙符合足底形狀之客製化雙材料複合式鞋墊,深具未來發展潛力。
Come together with the awareness of health care, there are getting popular for people using functional insole in their shoes. Conventional methods to insole mass-customization industry have their limits. It is necessary to develop a new manufacturing process to overcome conventional time consuming and labor intensive process. The developed process should help customers having their personal insole in shortest time possible. This study proposes the concept of bi-material composite full size insole. The underlying selection of the Universal insole can effectively support the body weight. The plantar contact cushion is the other part of the insole which will bring the comfort touch by the total contact to the plantar as well as the soft material properties. The cushion layer design and manufacturing processing is the objectives of this study. In terms of design, this cushion layer for customizable full insole type should bring the ankle stable function and to average the foot pressure. It is achieved by to total contact shape design. In terms of the manufacturing, the engraving machine 3-axis NC machining adapt with vacuum chuck is used to suck this soft insole material for machining. A large ball mill (φ16mm) has been chosen to shorten the total machining path together with a smooth surface result. Moreover, a self-designed vacuum machine has been used to bond both universal insole and the machined soft cushion. The insole can show good ankle stability and foot pressure averaging results in the pressure pad testing. This research can achieve fast and customized results, has potential for future market.
