What You Need to Know About Silicone Baby Bottle Making Machine

Introduction

There is a wide range of baby products available in the market nowadays and people have a lot of choices. There are baby products such as silicone baby bottle, pacifiers, nipples of milk bottle and teethers. Today we will analyze one baby product: milk bottle. What kind of milk bottle is the most suitable for babies to use and conducive to the healthy growth of babies?

What is the difference between silicone milk bottles and other milk bottles?

Glass milk bottle: high quality and safety performance, for the newborn baby is very good, very safe, but the baby is a little older, if the baby to take their own bottle is not safe, it is easy to fall and break. Recommended for babies 0-6 months.

Plastic milk bottle: divided into PC (this bottle is the most unsafe), PA, PP, PES and so on. The material is not very reassuring, the most fear is to reuse unsafe plastic, but drop resistance, but plastic milk bottle is not easy to clean, you need to use cleaning solution to wash clean. More suitable for babies after 6 months baby use.

Plastic in the production must be added to a large number of antioxidants, plasticizers, stabilizers, etc., these additives are harmful to the human body, and plastic in high temperature conditions will make the environmental hormone-like substances oozing out and accumulated in the human body's fat tissue.

Silicone milk bottle: Silicone milk bottle is quite good, high security, and not afraid of falling, suitable for babies of all ages. Silicone milk bottle is made of liquid silicone milk bottle, does not contain BPA, and will not be broken, with excellent transparency, tear strength, resilience, anti-yellowing, heat aging and weather resistance.

The process of making things using silicone, both as a liquid and a solid

Silicone is used in many industries because it is safe, soft and comfortable to touch, and can withstand high and low temperatures. It is used in many different industries, including the maternal and infant industry, electronics industry, labour insurance industry, medical industry, auto parts industry and kitchen and bathroom industry. What is the liquid silicone injection moulding process?

The following focuses on the differences between the liquid and solid silicone injection moulding processes.

Liquid silicone AB glue is divided into two equal parts. The parts are mixed together at a ratio of 1:1. The mixing tube is used to mix the glue fully. First, the glue is mixed using the dynamic tube, and then it is mixed using the static tube. The glue is then put into the mould using the barrel. The glue is then vulcanised at high temperature. Just one or two people are needed to look after the caretaker. This will save you money. Liquid silicone equipment costs more than solid silicone equipment, but it uses less energy, making it easier for the people using it and creating a better work environment.

The process of making solid silicone moulds needs to be refined. First, the rubber is cut into small pieces. Then, the pieces are opened up and the rubber is put under the rubber strip. You need more than a small amount of rubber in the mould for moulding. This is because solid silica gel is mould by the lsr injection molding machine. This can create more burrs, and the edge of the product needs to be torn. Finally, the product is packaged. Investing in solid silicone equipment is not very expensive, but it uses a lot of energy, needs a lot of people to operate it, and the working environment is not good and is very hot.

What Is a Silicone Baby Bottle Mold?

A mold is a metal tool used to give shape to the bottle. Imagine a mold like a baking pan: when silicone is injected inside, it takes the shape of the mold, just like cake batter in a pan.

A silicone baby bottle mold is carefully designed to make sure the bottle:

Has the correct size and shape

Is smooth with no sharp edges

Can be easily removed from the mold

Meets baby safety standards

These molds can have one or more “cavities,” which means they can make one or many bottles at the same time.

How Are Baby Bottle Molds Used in Production?

Once the mold is ready, it is placed inside a special lsr injection molding machine. The whole process is highly automated, which means it needs very little human handling. This keeps the bottles clean and makes the work faster.

Here’s how the process works step by step:

Mixing the Silicone

Two parts of LSR are pumped and mixed inside a lsr injection molding machine.

Injecting the Silicone

The liquid silicone is injected into the hot mold under pressure.

Curing the Silicone

Heat inside the mold helps the silicone to set (or "cure") in just a few seconds 

Removing the Bottle

A robotic arm takes out the finished rubber baby bottle. Some lsr injection molding machines also cut off the extra rubber automatically.

Checking Quality

Some factories use cameras or sensors to check if the bottle has any defects.

Packing and Storing

Once approved, the bottle is ready to be cleaned, packed, and sent to customers.

This system allows factories to produce thousands of bottles per day, all with the same high quality.
