ShoeExpress is composed of four modules covering the entire footwear creation process:
- ShoeExpress Design:
- Generate curves and points quickly from digitized data
- Trace curves over bitmaps
- Wrap curves and surfaces to surfaces
- Unfold surfaces
- Automatic creation and dynamic modification of the side surfaces
- Dynamic generation of under surfaces for anatomic parts, with real time display of the result.
- Fast and easy creation of geometric entities for sole cut-outs ready for down-stream NC processing using NC templates.
- 3D shoe grading for hybrid models (points, curves, surfaces, solids and STL objects)
- Scaling parameters are defined by user defined zones.
- Fixed area management for logos, insets, air-bags etc.
- Multiple sizes generated by one grading operation.
- ShoeExpress Sole Morphing:
- Morph an existing 3D shoe hybrid model (points, curves, surfaces, solids and STL objects) from one shoe profile to another.
- Fixed areas management
- ShoeExpress Heel Design:
- Creation of the 3D heel from 2D or 3D curves
- Dynamic modification and management of curves and surfaces
- 3D grading; table driven control over every grading parameter.
- Automatic creation of geometric entities for the heel tip mold ready for down-stream NC processing.
- ShoeExpress Casting:
- Automatic identification of curves
- Automatic creation of geometric entities for cover and mold ready for down-stream NC processing using CimatronE’s powerful NC templates.
- Management of several covers for multi-color molds.
- Re- application of the process to different models (geometric template)
