Structural Engineering Service

Engineered for
Safety. Built for Scale.

YMS provides end-to-end structural engineering for silicone baby products -- from functional analysis and wall-thickness optimization to multi-part assembly and mass production stability. Every geometry is designed to pass certification, tooling, and 100% inspection.

01 -- Functional Analysis

Understanding How Every Part Must Behave.

Before a single line is drawn, we deconstruct the product into functional zones -- grip, seal, flex, and support -- and map how each interacts with an infant's motor skills, oral development, and daily use scenarios.

Use-Case Mapping

Grip, suck, chew, drop scenarios modeled against infant ergonomics.

Load & Stress Zones

Identify high-stress regions requiring reinforcement or flex relief.

Safety Compliance

Choke hazard, sharp edge & pinch-point analysis vs CE, FDA, LFGB.

DFM Feedback

Structured report with recommended geometry changes for moldability.

Uniform wall thickness minimizes shrink lines and cure defects.

02 -- Wall Thickness & Dimensions

Balance of Softness, Strength & Moldability.

Wall thickness dictates cure time, shrinkage, tear resistance and infant safety. Our engineers optimize thickness distribution to eliminate weak points, prevent flash, and guarantee dimensional stability within ±0.1mm.

  • Uniform thickness zones to avoid sink marks & warpage
  • Ribbed reinforcement for bite & impact zones
  • Draft angles engineered for clean demolding
  • Shrinkage compensation calibrated per silicone grade

03 -- Connection & Sealing

Leak-Proof, Secure, Easy to Clean.

From snap-fits between silicone and PP to compression seals in bottle nipples -- we engineer joints that stay leak-proof through thousands of use cycles and dishwasher runs.

Snap-Fit

Locking Interfaces

Undercut geometry designed for repeatable disassembly without permanent deformation. Ideal for detachable straws and bowl lids.

5000+ cycles tested
Compression Seal

Leak-Proof Rings

Precision O-ring and lip-seal profiles calculated for silicone compression set, ensuring watertight bottles and cups.

IPX7 equivalent tested
Overmolding

Multi-Material Bonds

Silicone bonded to PP, PC, ABS or stainless steel via chemical primer + mechanical anchoring for zero-delamination.

Peel-tested to spec

04 -- Multi-Part Fit

Every Part Fits. Every Time.

Baby feeding sets often combine 3-7 components across different materials. We build tolerance stack-up models to guarantee that lids screw on smoothly, straws seal tight, and lids never wobble -- batch after batch.

05 -- Material Matching

The Right Silicone for the Right Structure.

Solid silicone rubber (HCR) or liquid silicone rubber (LSR)? Shore 30A or 60A? Our engineers select the exact grade based on geometry demands -- tear strength, elongation, clarity and compression set -- for every function.

Grade

LSR 30A

Soft, translucent. Ideal for pacifier nipples & bottle teats.

Food Grade

Grade

LSR 50A

Balanced flex & durability. Best for cups, spoons, teethers.

LFGB

Grade

HCR 60A

High tear resistance for bite toys and reinforced lids.

FDA

Grade

Custom Blend

Bespoke Shore hardness, color-match, & anti-microbial additives.

06 -- Documentation

Drawings That Speak the Language of Production.

Every project ships with a full technical dossier -- 2D dimensioned drawings, 3D CAD (STEP/IGES), BOM, tolerance sheets, and material specifications -- ready for tooling, inspection and certification review.

07 -- Sample Validation

Prototype Once. Validate Thoroughly.

Every T1 sample undergoes structured validation across function, durability and safety before mold refinement is approved. This front-loaded testing eliminates costly rework at mass production.

Step 01

Dimensional Check

CMM measurement vs drawings, verifying every critical tolerance point.

Step 02

Functional Test

Seal, snap, flex and load simulation under real-world use conditions.

Step 03

Durability Aging

Constant temp/humidity, tear, tensile and 500+ dishwasher cycles.

Step 04

Safety Certification

FDA, LFGB, CE, EN71 testing coordinated with accredited labs.

08 -- Mass Production

Stability at Scale, Batch After Batch.

Structural engineering doesn't end at approval -- it continues on the shop floor. Our SPC process, 100% inspection line and mold-maintenance schedule keep tolerances tight even at 500,000 units and beyond.
