Towards Commercialization

Nike: In the past period of time, Nike began to push the main to improve the support and fit of the "sock" design. Pioneer's appearance and indeed better performance have attracted many buyers for Nike. The sock design, which appeals to support and fit, is where 3D printing technology has potential.

With Nike announced the cooperation with HP, Nike will use the 3D printing solutions provided by HP to accelerate the mass production of sports equipment using 3D printing technology. Perhaps soon, when we buy Nike shoes in the store, we unknowingly buy products containing 3D printing technology.
 
New Balance: As far as the 3D printing shoe market is concerned, it is probably not very possible for consumers to spend tens of thousands of dollars to buy a pair of nylon shoes. However, 3D printing for the manufacture of shoe midsoles in the running shoe market has indeed gone commercial and has the potential to change the rules of the game.

To design a shoe midsole that conforms to human mechanics, it is also necessary to study the difference between the pressure of the human body stepping on the floor on the sole and the pressure of jumping up? The foot of the human body is in constant motion, and what is the pressure change on the sole? Is it possible to achieve the ideal pressure cushioning effect by increasing the density of the sole tissue in the pressure-intensive sole? The Nervous Systems company, a graduate from MIT, studies a large amount of data to generate algorithmic software to help New Balance realize unique and completely customized shoes for customers, which not only suits the foot type but also conforms to the movement mode of the shoe owner.
 
New Balance's 3D printed shoes have been sold, and the 3D printing technology used in the shoe midsole is SLS selective laser sintering technology.
 
Integrated Mobile Health

The 3D printed shoes named SOLS Adaptiv are customized and can be made of various materials. Motion sensors are implanted in the 3D printed shoe body, and the ankle area is equipped with 3D printed silicone airbags. It can monitor the wearer's movements and change the pressure distribution inside the whole shoe accordingly to support the feet, ankles and other parts. It can also change the support strength through inflation and deflation.

Even more impressive, the shoes are also equipped with color-sensing cameras and LED lights, which can change different colors according to the wearer's clothing. For athletes, this kind of shoes can better help them physical activity and improve their sports performance through its excellent adaptability. This uses EOS's additive manufacturing equipment.
