MACHINE 2

Toe modelling.

This machine’s function is to assemble the toe section. As a preliminary step, a glue base has to be applied to

the insole and then the upper is positioned upwards with the toe using side clamps to apply pressure to

perfectly join the upper to the toe section and sides of the shoe.

mise en forme de l'avant-pied
Explanation:
Plutôt que "upper" j'aurais bien vu "vamp" (empeigne, claque) pour la fabrication de chaussures traditionnelles, mais vu qu'on colle le dessus sur la semelle intérieure il y a sans doute des opérations de couture ultérieures.

On peut aussi dire "bout" s'il est séparé, mais le bout fleuri ou autres élégances se rencontrent plus souvent sur les chaussures de ville
