Heat Setter – PR 1164/4L

After lasting, footwear uppers require controlled heating and conditioning to permanently retain the shape of the last. The PR 1164/4L Heat Setter performs this critical function by exposing lasted footwear to a carefully controlled mixture of heat and steam.

The machine features a conveyor-based system with adjustable dwell times ranging from 1 to 10 seconds, allowing manufacturers to optimize processing parameters based on material type and production requirements. Advanced programmable logic controls (PLC) with HMI interface enable precise control of steam, heat, and cycle duration, ensuring repeatable results across different footwear styles.

By improving upper shape retention and reducing post-lasting deformation, the PR 1164/4L helps manufacturers achieve higher-quality finished products while increasing production efficiency and consistency.
