A 3D printed structure of an elastic material having at least a first layer and a second layer may be provided. In one implementation, the 3D printed structure may include at least a first wall having a primary structural layer and a first flexible layer, and at least a second wall having a secondary structural layer and a second flexible layer. An axis of the 3D printed structure may intersect the first layer and the second layer and may intersect the primary structural layer and the secondary structural layer. The primary structural layer may have a first rigidity and the first flexible layer may have a second rigidity, the first rigidity being greater than the second rigidity.

3D printed structure

A load sensing device for a shoe includes a base element having a first side and an opposite second side. The first side has a predefined area. A first load sensing element and a second load sensing element are positioned at the first side of the base element. The first load sensing element is positioned in a first area of the predefined area of the first side, and the second load sensing element is positioned in a second area of the predefined area of the first side. The first load sensing element has a fixed position relative to the second load sensing element during use. The first load sensing element and the second load sensing element are configured to measure a load applied to at least part of the predefined area of the first side.

A 3D printed structure of an elastic material may be provided. In one implementation, the 3D printed structure may include at least a first wall having a plurality of layers extending along a first axis. The first wall may include at least a primary structural layer, a first flexible layer, and a second flexible layer. The primary structural layer may have a first rigidity and at least one of the first flexible layer or the second flexible layer may have a second rigidity, the first rigidity being greater than the second rigidity.

A 3D printed structure of an elastic material having a first wall and a second wall may be provided. In one implementation, the 3D printed structure may include a first layer having a first portion of a first wall part and a first portion of a second wall part. The first portion of the first wall part may include a primary structural layer and the first portion of the second wall part may include a first flexible layer. The 3D printed structure may also include a second layer having a second portion of the first wall part and a second portion of the second wall part. The second portion of the first wall part may include a second flexible layer. The primary structural layer and the first flexible layer may have a first rigidity and a second rigidity, respectively, the first rigidity being greater than the second rigidity.

The present invention relates to a method for generating control data for controlling a shoe part production machine for making shoes or elements for optimizing traction properties of the shoe by customizing modules to be mounted on the sole for a specific user, said method comprising the steps of: receiving user profile data describing the characteristics of the user where the user profile data comprise use data and test data, receiving a user selection identifying a selected shoe from a number of shoe models or a selected element influencing the property of a shoe, generating modified template data by modifying a shoe sole template corresponding to the selected shoe model or by modifying an element influencing the properties corresponding to the selected element, said modifications being performed based on said received user profile data, generating control data based on said modified template data.
