In recent years, thanks to the rapid development of global 3D printing technology and the gradual maturity of the application of 3D printing materials in the field of shoe materials, 3D printed sports shoes have become a hot trend. Compared with traditional sports shoes, 3D printed sports shoes have attracted the attention of manufacturers and consumers widely due to their unique advantages in the fields of full material fusion, customized production, and sustainable development, and become the development direction of future manufacturing. However, there are still many challenges in the comprehensive customization of 3D printing materials, the manufacturing and integration of different 3D printing shoe material parts, and the in-depth cooperation between the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain. The 3D printing shoe material solution jointly developed by Wanhua Chemical and Peak Sports is expected to break through the existing bottleneck.
Hua Weiqi, executive vice president and technical director of Wanhua Chemical Group Co., Ltd., said: “With the rapid development of global 3D printing technology, the manufacturing industry will usher in new changes, which will bring new benefits to brand owners and end consumers.
