The construction of the molds
The mold manufacturing workshop is the place where ideas begin to take shape. The design takes place in a very short time using CAM platforms managed by highly qualified personnel. The creation then passes through the expert hands of those who have always made heel molds, moving from the old fusion technologies to the most modern systems capable of increasing the quality of the workmanship, drastically reducing production times of the finished product.
