The reference book contains information on footwear technology, methods of technological processes. Technological parameters and production modes are described. Classification of shoe quality control methods is given. For engineers and technicians in the shoe industry. In footwear production, scientific and technical progress is manifested in equipping it with new technical and automatic means, improving the technological process and production management system, in expanding the use of new materials, methods of quality control of finished products and production processes. The use of new equipment and advanced technologies determines the specifics of performing a number of shoe manufacturing operations, increasing the requirements for the properties of materials, the use of more advanced forms of organization and production management. The complex of measures of scientific and technological progress allows not only to increase labor productivity, to increase the number of shoes produced, but also to create the basis for the production of shoes of consistently high quality and a wide range. Currently, along with the technologies, processes, operations traditionally used in shoe production, automatic and semi-automatic equipment is used.
