Its newest product is the Coral Runner, an entirely printed sneaker made of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU). The shoe was designed by Shun Ping Pek, a Singapore shoe designer.<\/p>\n<p>The shoe responds to massive market interest in runners, and more interest besides in customized runners. voxeljet is quick to point up three challenges for the shoe industry to which its product responds:<\/p>\n<div>\n<ol>\n<li>Individualization, by which customers emphasize value on customized shoes that are perfectly adapted to their feet and movements for improved comfort and performance;<\/li>\n<li>Sustainability, with which the market demands more easily recyclable materials; and<\/li>\n<li>Automation, through which small quantities that once required special tooling or molds, may be affordably produced.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>AM, as readers know, addresses these issues with ease, thus making the technology and its users the world\u2019s newest cobblers.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-179327 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Pasted-into-A-Cobbler-in-the-Machine-Voxeljets-Coral-Runner-1-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The Coral Runner emphasizes innovation and customizability. Shun Ping Pek was inspired by coral, which builds itself through additive sedimentation. The designer obviously draws this parallel in the shoe\u2019s look; its creation in Voxeljet\u2019s VX200 HSS powder bed system literally recreates coral\u2019s sedimentary process.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>\u201cThe great advantage of <a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/service\/3d-printing-service\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">3D print<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/service\/3d-printing-service\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ing<\/a> is both on-demand manufacturing and the one-to-one transfer of the digital model into a real object,\u201d explains Shun Ping Pek. \u201cWhile the Coral Runner could theoretically also be manufactured using conventional production techniques such as injection molding, this way would have been very challenging due to the consistent design. The HSS technology offers the ideal solution\u201d.<\/p>\n<div style=\"background-color: #eaeaea7a; padding: 15px 30px; overflow-wrap: break-word; display: flex; align-items: center; border-radius: 4px; box-shadow: -1px 4px 20px 0px #dedede; margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em;\">\n<div style=\"flex: 1; padding-right: 30px;\">\n<h4 style=\"margin-bottom: 14px;\">Manufacturing on Demand<\/h4>\n<div style=\"display: block;\">Realize your creation with full capabilities, expand your business from prototyping to mass production.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a style=\"background-color: #0baee8; color: white; padding: 10px 20px; border-radius: 4px;\" href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><i class=\"fa-fw auxicon auxicon-cloud-upload\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i> Get Quote<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The shoe\u2019s TPU material was sourced from material manufacturer Covestro; the material has been a common p<a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/topics\/art\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">art<\/a> of shoe soles for decades.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>The choice of TPU made perfect sense in this case because it can be very soft and elastic or very hard and durable.

Specific build areas may be dyed more deeply by specifically controlling the volume of the absorber jetted into the powder bed. The more absorber jetted, the stronger the components become. By using industrial inkjet print heads, it is thus possible to print different grey scales within one layer, thus establishing different product properties in each layer.<\/p>\n<p>Hence the return to <a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/topics\/art\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">art<\/a>isanship and the cobblers who, though relatively fewer in number, still work to customize our shoes.
