Where a lasting machine operator can go next
5 destinations recorded, ranked by how much of the target role a lasting machine operator already meets. The closer to the top of Table 1, the less there is to learn.
Lasting machine operators pull the forepart, the waist and the seat of the upper over the last using specific machines with the aim of obtaining the final shape of the footwear model. They start by placing the toe in the machine, stretching the edges of the upper over the last, and pressing the seat. They then flatten the wiped edges and cut excess box toe and lining, and use stitching or cementing to fix the shape.
