A machine for producing footwear comprises support means on which a shoe last (4) is positioned, to which is attached an insole and over which is laid an upper (6), a projector (13) that emits a beam of light (14) towards the said support means so as to mark a line of reference (15) along which the shoe last (4) and the upper (6) are centred, a set of clamps for gripping and stretching the upper (6) over the shoe last (4) and a pad (18) that can move in an approximately vertical direction towards and away from the said support means in order to hold the shoe last (4) and the upper (6) in position so that subsequent operations can be carried out on the upper (6) and on the insole. Advantageously, the projector (13) can move between a working position in which it marks the said line of reference and a retracted position when the pad (18) is holding the shoe last (4) and the upper (6) in position, so that it is out of the way of the said pad. <IMAGE> |
