The document discusses the vacuum sealed molding process, also known as the v-process, developed in Japan in 1971, which utilizes dry sand, plastic film, and vacuum pressure for binding without the need for a shaking out method. It highlights the advantages of the v-process in rapid fabrication of shoe molds and its use in improving the manufacturing process through a multi-objective framework. Various literature references are provided, illustrating the effectiveness and application of this methodology in the shoe industry.

2. INTRODUCTION
•Also known as V-Process
•Developed in 1971 in Japan
• It make use of dry sand, plastic film and vacuum pressure for
binding
•No need of shaking out method and equipment to remove the
casting

5. Rapid fabrication of aluminum shoe mold using vacuum
sealed molding process
S. Chunga,∗, Y. Ima, H. Jeong a, D. Jeong b, K. Choc, S. Leed, B. Choi d, H. Choi d feb 2004
•Comes under Materials Processing Technology
•Relay on Rapid Product Development in Shoe Industry using V
process
•In general shoes molds are made by cutting process
•It comprises of three parts

6. •Due to technical difficulties all the three parts are
manufactured by conventional machining process
•This paper suggests to use V-Process
•Shoe mold made by V-Process consist only an Upper and Lower
mold
•V-Process will helps in Rapid Product Development in a Shoe
Industry
