Why Huadeli Chose Xingzhong Again for PVC Direct Injection Shoe Production

Wenzhou Huadeli Shoes Co., Ltd. returned to Xingzhong in 2022 to expand its footwear production capacity. The order covered four 24-station PVC direct injection shoe machines, bringing its cumulative purchases from Xingzhong to eight machines. Huadeli's decision reflected both a need for additional capacity and its positive experience with the quality and operating stability of the first machines.

The factory mainly produces canvas shoes and casual shoes, with its products exported to Europe and America. Once all eight machines reach full production, their combined output is expected to reach 20,000 pairs per day.

An established footwear manufacturer in Wenzhou

Huadeli is based in Wenzhou, Zhejiang, China. A published company profile traces its origins to 1979 and records the establishment of a Sino-foreign joint venture in 1992. That profile describes an export-oriented manufacturer whose historical product range includes injection shoes, snow boots, protective footwear, leather shoes and slippers. This background places the Xingzhong installation within an established footwear manufacturing business. [1]

Public records also document Huadeli's participation in international trade activities. The Wenzhou authorities included the company in their published list of exhibitors for the 105th Canton Fair in 2009. More recently accessed information from the China Chamber of Commerce for Import and Export of Light Industrial Products and Arts-Crafts lists Huadeli among the council member companies of its footwear branch. These records provide context for the company's longstanding involvement in the footwear export sector. [2][3]

Product development and workforce training also feature in its public activities. In April 2023, Huadeli signed a cooperation agreement with Wenzhou Light Industry Vocational School. The school's report describes a visit to the company's development department, sample room and footwear research and development center, together with plans for practical training and employment opportunities. The visit offers a concrete view of the organization behind its production operations. [4]

Why Huadeli chose Xingzhong again

Additional capacity for canvas and casual footwear

Huadeli's second purchase was driven by a need to expand production capacity. The factory already used Xingzhong machines and needed additional equipment for its canvas shoe and casual shoe business. Ordering four more machines in 2022 increased the equipment available for that expansion and brought total purchases from Xingzhong to eight.

For an export footwear manufacturer, an equipment decision connects the production floor with order planning. Additional machines provide more installed production resources, while the factory must still coordinate materials, uppers, moulds and staffing to use that capacity. In Huadeli's case, the expansion goal was accompanied by direct experience of the supplier's earlier equipment, giving the customer a practical basis for its next purchase.

Confidence built through the first machines

The high quality of the first machines was an important reason Huadeli selected Xingzhong again. According to Xingzhong's account of the customer relationship, the initial equipment gave Huadeli confidence in the machines and supported the decision to continue purchasing from the same manufacturer.

That distinction matters to a machinery buyer. Before an initial purchase, the customer can assess specifications, samples and discussions with the supplier. A repeat purchase also draws on experience in the customer's own factory. Huadeli had already worked with Xingzhong equipment before committing to the additional four machines. Its decision therefore reflects a customer's assessment informed by actual use.

Operating stability as a purchasing priority

The strong operating stability of the first machines was the other central reason for the repeat order. Huadeli's experience with those machines helped build confidence in choosing Xingzhong for the next stage of capacity expansion.

Stability matters because a footwear production plan depends on the coordination of successive operations. Equipment performance is one part of that system, alongside mould preparation, material consistency and operator routines. For Huadeli, satisfaction with the earlier machines' stability was a concrete purchasing consideration. Together with the need for more capacity, it explains why the factory returned to Xingzhong in 2022. For prospective buyers, that repeat investment offers a specific example of how experience with a supplier can inform an expansion decision.

Four 24-station machines installed in 2022

The 2022 purchase comprised four 24-station PVC direct injection shoe machines. The installation photograph shows the blue rotary machines arranged along the workshop, with the nearest machine and its control equipment visible in the foreground. It records the installation setting for this group of machines.

A rotary configuration organizes successive production operations around the machine's stations. In a factory layout, the equipment must be considered together with space for operators, material supply, mould handling, maintenance access and movement of footwear between processes. Those practical requirements are relevant when planning an expansion like Huadeli's.

The confirmed 24-station specification applies to the four machines purchased in 2022. Huadeli's cumulative total is eight Xingzhong injection shoe machines. These two figures describe different parts of the case: the configuration of the later order and the total equipment purchased from the supplier.

For buyers considering a similar installation, Xingzhong's current rotary shoe injection molding machine range provides a starting point for discussing available configurations. The final selection should follow the intended footwear construction, material, mould requirements and workshop arrangement.

PVC direct injection for canvas shoes and casual shoes

PVC direct injection forms the sole onto a prepared shoe upper within a mould. The upper is positioned on a last, the mould closes around the sole area, and the PVC material is injected. After the required cooling and opening sequence, the footwear can move to the next production steps.

For canvas shoes and casual footwear, this process connects the upper design with the sole material and mould geometry. A suitable machine is part of the production solution, together with compatible uppers, correctly prepared moulds and an appropriate PVC formulation. These elements should be evaluated as a combination when developing a shoe style.

Huadeli's installation illustrates this application in an export manufacturing setting. Its main products are canvas shoes and casual shoes for Europe and America. Buyers developing similar footwear should begin with representative samples and the required sole characteristics, then review the process with the equipment supplier. Xingzhong's PVC material options for direct injection offer a related discussion point when matching equipment, moulds and materials to a proposed product.

Planning for an expected 20,000 pairs per day

After all eight machines reach full production, Huadeli's combined output is expected to reach 20,000 pairs per day. This figure is the projected total for the eight-machine installation. It should be read as a capacity expectation, rather than a reported production result already achieved.

Turning installed capacity into daily output requires coordination across the factory. Relevant variables include shoe design, material formulation, mould availability, cooling requirements, operating hours, staffing, maintenance and the readiness of upstream and downstream processes. Those conditions need to be considered when applying any capacity figure to a production plan.

For another factory, Huadeli's expected total is useful context for the scale of this project. A separate output assessment should be based on that buyer's own footwear and operating conditions. The case's main lesson for equipment selection is that Huadeli combined an expansion requirement with confidence gained from its first Xingzhong machines when deciding on the additional investment.
