A trial has been conducted to produce the uppers for orthopaedic shoes using an existing commercial computer-aided design system. The aims of the trial were to confirm that a CAD system developed for the volume shoe trade (Shoemaster from Clarks Shoes) could be used for the upper design of orthopaedic shoes and to assess the contribution of professional shoe design on cosmesis and acceptability of these shoes. A small number of adult diabetic patients and children with foot deformities were selected, all of who had previously been prescribed and issued with special shoes. The existing lasts for these patients were digitised, and new styles developed on the CAD system over a 3D image of the last. Pattern pieces were cut automatically and the uppers closed. Lasting was done as normal at the two collaborating orthopaedic companies and the shoes supplied to the patients. The CAD system proved successful in coping with orthopaedic last shapes and shoe requirements. Professional design produced fashionable and cosmetically-pleasing styles within the constraints imposed by the underlying medical conditions.
已进行了一项试验，使用现有的商业计算机辅助设计系统来制作矫形鞋的鞋面。该试验的目的是确认一个为批量制鞋行业开发的CAD系统（Clarks Shoes公司的Shoemaster）可用于矫形鞋的鞋面设计，并评估专业鞋类设计对这些鞋子美观性和可接受性的贡献。挑选了少数成年糖尿病患者和足部畸形儿童，他们之前都已被开处方并配发了特殊鞋子。将这些患者现有的鞋楦进行数字化处理，并在CAD系统上基于鞋楦的3D图像开发新款式。自动裁剪样板片并缝合鞋面。在两家合作的矫形公司按照常规进行绷帮，然后将鞋子提供给患者。事实证明，CAD系统成功地应对了矫形鞋楦形状和鞋子要求。在潜在医疗状况所施加的限制范围内，专业设计产生了时尚且美观的款式。
