Automated Production of Insulated Footwear

Abstract

The objective of the project was to establish the necessary production equipment requirements to set up a production facility to produce an expanded polyurethane pull-on type insulated boot and included the selection, evaluation, and design of equipment using standard process engineering practices and procedures. This report contains a boot manufacturing technique using liquid polyurethane injection molding equipment, a production process description with a flow chart and typical production layout; manning requirements; material and formula listing with purchasing, mixing, and storage requirements, physical properties requirements, acceptance standards with quality control procedures, equipment requirements with drawings where required, and other information that would be necessary to set up a manufacturing facility.
