How can eyelet machines improve efficiency in footwear production?

In today’s footwear industry, eyelet machines, especially automatic or semi-automatic ones, are radically transforming the way companies produce.

Until recently, many factories and workshops relied on manual methods for this task, which created bottlenecks, quality issues, and limited production capacity.

Although this method may work for small batches, it presents serious limitations when it comes to scaling:

• Low production speed.
• Lack of uniformity.
• Higher risk of error.
• Physical strain on staff.

There is no doubt that these critical factors not only slow down production but also increase costs due to rework, material waste, and downtime.

Advanced pneumatic and automatic eyelet machine solutions for every need

Technological evolution has allowed JOPEVI to develop eyelet machines specifically designed to overcome these limitations, offering solutions tailored to companies of any size, from small workshops to industrial factories.

Pneumatic eyelet machines: power and precision

Models such as the J-42 or J-25D use compressed air to perform the punching and fixing process in a single movement. Their advantages include:

• Higher speed: Up to 2500 strokes per hour.
• Constant pressure: Adjustable depending on the type of material (leather, technical fabric, synthetic), preventing breakage.
• Less physical effort: The operator only guides the piece; the machine does the heavy work.
• Professional finish: Each eyelet is perfectly aligned and sealed.

Automatic eyelet machines: maximum productivity

For mass production lines, automatic machines such as the J-237 or the J-600 represent the standard of excellence:

• Operate with minimal human intervention.
• Integrate automatic eyelet feeding systems.
• Can be programmed for different types of footwear, making model changes quick and easy.
• Ensure total consistency across thousands of units daily.

Mobile solutions: eyelet machines with trolley

For workshops that need flexibility, JOPEVI offers eyelet machines with trolley, such as the J-32. These portable units allow:

• Moving the machine between different workstations.
• Adapting to small spaces without sacrificing power.
• Maintaining high quality standards in non-industrial environments.
