Apego, perfect moulds and state-of-the-art services

Apego’s path is studded with tradition and innovation, efficiency and quality, the best production technologies, the employment of highly skilled personnel, and advanced technology machines. A perfect blend that combines product with services dedicated to customer care.

Such as the CONSULTING service that is committed to understanding the varied needs of the customer. Almost 60 years of activity alongside the best brands in the footwear sector have allowed Apego to develop a marked problem-solving ability, necessary when dealing with complex projects and creating high quality and precision moulds. Ideas, advice and technical specifications accompany the customer at every decision-making stage and suggest indispensable tricks to achieve excellent results.

Today it is clear that being fast and sustainable in responding to market needs is a crucial factor. Therefore, for some time now, Apego has been offering the service of digitizing shapes through three-dimensional scans, which prepares for CAD-CAM design and, therefore, for RAPID PROTOTYPING.

A process that allows test models to be made in just a few hours, so as to better evaluate their design and feasibility. A technology that reduces the time and cost of producing sample molds and allows a design to be defined in no time and quickly presented to the market, optimizing costs and resources.

Since Apego’s mission is not to sell moulds, but to accompany the customer in the realisation of complex projects, the quality and reliability of its technologies become essential points. So much so that it is equipped with polyurethane casting and/or injection machines that allow moulding and testing of all moulds for soles and direct injection on uppers, testing of moulds containing inserts and moulds composed of elements made from different materials. Apego has rubber moulding presses and vertical machines for thermoplastic injection available, so that every possible step can be verified. Mould testing is a crucial service that enables the customer to feed the products made by Apego directly into the production cycle.
