ZY-010 Heat- Reactivator Machine
In the ever-evolving world of shoemaking and footwear assembly, manufacturers are under continuous pressure to improve efficiency, consistency, and product quality. To meet these stringent demands, the ZY-010 Heat-Reactivator Machine has been engineered as a state-of-the-art solution that ensures optimal bonding strength through controlled heat activation. Combining intelligent heat management, high-speed airflow, and adaptive automation, this machine revolutionizes the heat reactivation stage of shoemaking a critical step that influences the durability, aesthetics, and longevity of every pair produced.Whether you are producing luxury leather shoes, athletic sneakers, formal dress shoes, or fashion-forward footwear with advanced synthetic materials, the ZY-010 is designed to deliver outstanding performance. It is built with the demands of large-scale factories in mind but refined for the precision required by premium manufacturing environments. From ergonomic control panels to sensor-based automation and energy-efficient heat generation, every component of the ZY-010 is developed to make shoe production smoother, faster, and more reliable.
Purpose-Built for Modern Footwear Assembly
The ZY-010 Heat-Reactivator Machine is essential in the shoemaking process, particularly in preparing adhesive-bonded areas prior to final assembly or pressing. This step ensures that previously applied adhesives often pressure-sensitive or thermoplastic in nature are reactivated with precise temperature and airflow to promote maximum bonding strength.By delivering carefully controlled heat and air across the toe, vamp, waist, or heel regions, the ZY-010 ensures the adhesives reach their optimal tackiness for final bonding. Poor reactivation leads to delamination, wrinkles, and weak bonding, all of which compromise product integrity and customer satisfaction. The ZY-010 eliminates these issues with a targeted, uniform, and intelligent reactivation cycle.Whether you’re using solvent-based adhesives, water-based glues, hot-melt systems, or polyurethane adhesives, the ZY-010 allows for tailored reactivation profiles that match the chemical and mechanical behavior of your adhesive types. This compatibility with a wide range of adhesive formulations makes it a vital investment for diverse product lines.
Intelligent Dual-Zone Heating System
At the heart of the ZY-010 is a dual-zone heating system that separates temperature control between the forefoot and rearfoot areas of the shoe. This innovation allows precise thermal calibration, which is essential for dealing with materials of varying thickness and heat sensitivity.Each zone features independent heating coils, regulated via advanced temperature sensors that constantly monitor and adjust heat output in real time. This ensures that each shoe receives even and optimal heat distribution, eliminating the risks of over-melting, scorching, or under-activation. Shoes with asymmetrical designs, different thickness zones, or specialized reinforcements benefit particularly from this dual-zone feature.The heating system uses ceramic or infrared elements, depending on your configuration, for rapid thermal response and long service life. Combined with energy-saving insulation and heat-retention architecture, the ZY-010 minimizes energy consumption while maximizing output.
High-Speed, Targeted Airflow Technology
In addition to heat, airflow plays a critical role in uniform reactivation. The ZY-010 is equipped with high-velocity air jets designed to direct heated air with pinpoint precision to areas that need reactivation. The airflow is channeled through custom nozzles that can be adjusted for angle, width, and intensity to match the shoe profile and adhesive type.Airflow can be customized through the digital user interface, allowing operators to adjust for airflow strength based on material thickness, surface finish, or environmental humidity. This tailored control ensures that even shoes with perforated uppers, mesh overlays, or heat-sensitive linings receive the ideal reactivation treatment.In environments where output speed and consistency are non-negotiable, the ZY-010’s airflow system ensures a rapid reactivation cycle, often completing the process in under 10 seconds per shoe depending on the adhesive and configuration. This capability makes it well-suited for production lines where output targets must be met without sacrificing quality.
Sensor-Guided Automation and Precision Control
The ZY-010 is designed to offer high levels of automation to reduce operator dependency and error rates. The inclusion of infrared sensors and thermal readers allows the machine to automatically detect the presence of the shoe, its distance from the heating zone, and the appropriate heat/air application time.Upon shoe detection, the machine activates its heating and airflow system automatically, ensuring consistent timing and reducing the possibility of undercooked or overheated adhesive zones. Once the cycle completes, it powers down into energy-saving mode, further contributing to cost efficiency.Operators no longer need to manually time each reactivation cycle or guess at heating levels. Instead, pre-programmed shoe profiles can be recalled instantly from memory, complete with settings for airflow pressure, heat intensity, and timing. This helps reduce waste, improves consistency across batches, and enhances overall factory efficiency.
Material Versatility and Application Range
One of the ZY-010’s standout strengths is its ability to work across a broad range of materials and shoe constructions. Its adjustable heating system, airflow technology, and positioning platform make it compatible with:
-
Leather Uppers: Full-grain, suede, nubuck, and patent leather benefit from even heat without curling or scorching.
-
Synthetic Uppers: Thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), mesh, microfiber, and PVC require lower, controlled heat ranges which the ZY-010 delivers precisely.
-
Foam or Composite Midsoles: EVA, PU, and rubber compounds are heated gently without deforming or melting.
-
Hybrid Shoe Designs: Multilayered constructions with glue barriers are managed effectively with dual-zone activation.
For manufacturers with diversified product lines or seasonal variations, this versatility reduces the need for multiple machines or complicated changeovers. The ZY-010 can handle everything from sandals to winter boots, allowing greater flexibility in factory output.
Time, Labor, and Energy Efficiency
Modern factories must compete not just on quality but on operational costs. The ZY-010 is a valuable asset in achieving these goals. Its fully enclosed heating system and directional airflow reduce heat waste, making it more energy-efficient than conventional open-heat machines.The automatic activation/deactivation sensors reduce idle running time, while its quick heating elements require no prolonged pre-heating, allowing machines to be turned on just-in-time for shift starts. All of this contributes to lower utility bills, especially important in high-volume factories with multiple machines running simultaneously.From a labor perspective, the machine’s high degree of automation reduces the need for experienced technicians to manage every reactivation cycle. One operator can efficiently manage multiple machines, enabling factories to reallocate skilled labor to more complex tasks. The machine’s reliability and repeatability also reduce rework rates, further cutting operational costs.
