May 27, 2025From the meticulously hand-stitched traditional cloth shoes to the mass-produced athletic footwear churned out by assembly lines, the footwear industry has undergone centuries of evolution and transformation. As the pace of industrialization quickens, cost control has emerged as the linchpin of corporate competition, fueling the prevalence of large-scale standardized production. New directions under the changing needs of the times In the early days, consumers’ demand for shoes was mainly focused on meeting daily wear, and footwear enterprises pursued production volume to satisfy the huge market demand. Today, consumer demands have become increasingly diversified and personalized. People are no longer satisfied with the basic functions of shoes alone, but have higher requirements for design and environmental protection. This series of demand changes has prompted the footwear industry to continuously explore new development directions. The Imminent Challenges Facing Manufacturers In the transformation of footwear products from “output priority” to “cost control” and now to the era where “production capacity, cost, innovation, and environmental protection go hand in hand”, footwear enterprises are faced with numerous challenges. Traditional production equipment and processes struggle to meet complex and diverse design requirements.

Feb 08, 2023Comfortable, Luxurious Car Seats are the Preferred Choice. Consumers are no longer limited to the aesthetics of their cars, but are paying more and more attention to the aesthetics, comfort and personalisation of the interior when purchasing. As an important part of the car’s interior, consumers are particularly demanding about car seats. For example, some of the existing ventilated seats are not well ventilated due to irregular breathable holes, so car owners will choose a more breathable car seat to replace the original seat to maintain a comfortable and breathable feeling; or replace it with a set of tailor-made seats, which can not only enhance the car’s class, highlight the unique personality, but also add a sense of comfort. As a result, the comfort of car seats and innovative manufacturing processes have become a key concern for many manufacturers of automotive interiors. If punching is continuously performed with automated machines, when different hole diameters are required, customized punching needles need to be replaced and the process is unique and only applicable to the punching process. GBOS, as a service provider offering innovative process solution, has developed the XXP3-180 intelligent high-speed laser...
