How are short track speed skating shoes made? Every pair of speed skaters' shoes on the competition circuit is custom-made. Making a pair of speed skates starts with this horn that grows hair.
First, a speed skater's feet are sized, and then a plaster-stained poetic bandage is wrapped around her feet, much like a broken hand or foot. Each foot is molded in two parts, each of which is an initial model of the speed skater's foot. After wrapping the plaster bandage in place, you need to wait ten minutes for it to air dry and harden. The worker then removes the molds individually and rubber bands the two pieces back together. Next, the assembled molds are buried in sand with a beveled opening, and the plaster solution is poured into the molds and used to create a model of the foot. The sand provides pressure so that the plaster doesn't twist and distort the mold by pushing it outward. After two hours, the plaster hardens completely and the foot model can be removed.
Second, next, the worker mixes some thicker plaster and mixes in another color so he can distinguish it from the white foot model. The worker then applies the colored plaster to specific areas, adjusting imperfections and for a strip called the shape of the model, and then uses sandpaper to smooth the toes as well as the rest of the contours to create the speed skates. The Final ShapeThe next step is to start manufacturing the speed skates. The first thing to do is to wrap the model with an inner weighing, pin a piece of leather to the model and pull him in to prevent wrinkles from appearing on the lining, which can affect the player's performance in the race. Next, ankle pads made of memory foam are glued on with strong glue.
Third, after wrapping the beveled edges, the next step is the most important step in shoemaking because it determines the angle of the ice skates. Apply epoxy putty to the front and back of the sole, dip two aluminum round ice skate holders, and strip the shoe of paint to square it up. After five hours, the putty air-dried, and then the excess was removed from the sick screen. Next, wrap the shoes with these carbon fiber pieces, tie the bottom piece of carbon fiber to the ice skate holders with a strong laxative, and then secure each layer with spray adhesive. Not only are the carbon fiber pieces strong, they also reduce the weight of the speed skates.
Fourth, the next is to give the carbon fiber reinforcement, will be a plastic bag set on the shoes, tied bag mouth, with a vacuum machine to pump the air inside the plastic bag, so that the carbon fiber layer tightly fit together, and then the branches into the bag, and squeezed with the hand, so that it is evenly distributed in the bag. The branches will penetrate the carbon fiber, and when the resin air-dries and hardens, the skate will be strong and durable. Next, dip the upper made of vinyl resin, wait for the glue to dry, remove the plaster model, and then use a sewing machine to lock the upper edges and sew them on, then sew the lace pieces made of vinyl resin, and finally attach the steel ice skates, and a pair of short skate speed skates are made.
