Overview:
The Customized Portable Silicone Pet Bowl for Dog & Cat Feeding Applications is a collapsible, travel-friendly feeding solution crafted from 100% food-grade silicone. Designed with deep, sloped walls and a reinforced, non-slip base, this bowl ensures comfortable, spill-free meals for pets on the go. Manufactured via precision liquid silicone rubber (LSR) injection molding, each unit features seamless folding ribs for easy collapse and expansion. As expert OEM suppliers, we provide end-to-end customization—offering bespoke bowl diameters, heights, color matching, and integrated branding—to deliver turnkey products that enhance your pet care portfolio.

Production Process:
- Material Formulation
- Blend FDA- and LFGB-certified silicone compounds with color pigments and reinforcing agents in a heated, closed-loop mixer to ensure uniform viscosity and pigmentation.
- Injection Molding
- Inject the prepared silicone into multi-cavity, collapsible-bowl molds under 140–160 °C and high-pressure (800–1200 bar) conditions.
- Employ automated shot metering and servo-driven injection units to maintain precise wall thickness (1.5 mm–2.5 mm) and ensure foldable rib integrity.
- Demolding & Trimming
- Open molds and eject fully cured bowls via ejector pins.
- Use pneumatic trimming stations or CNC-guided knives to remove any residual flash, guaranteeing a smooth outer rim and fold lines.
- Logo & Graphic Integration
- Apply custom logos or icons using pad printing with silicone-compatible inks or create embossed branding directly in the mold cavity for permanent identification.
- Quality Testing
- Perform dimensional checks with calipers and go/no-go gauges to verify bowl diameters and collapse/expand tolerances.
- Conduct leak and pressure tests by filling bowls with water and inspecting for seepage at the folds.
- Execute flex fatigue trials by collapsing and expanding samples >1,000 times to confirm silicone memory and fold-line durability.
- Test thermal performance by cycling bowls between –40 °C and +230 °C to validate structural integrity.
- Packaging & Final Inspection
- Inspect each bowl under daylight lamps to ensure color consistency, surface finish, and branding accuracy.
- Package in eco-friendly, recyclable materials—labeling each carton with part numbers, lot codes, and handling instructions.
- Coordinate with logistics for timely delivery, ensuring bowls remain free of deformation during transit.

Factory Show:
Our ISO 9001–certified production facility features dedicated clean zones and state-of-the-art tooling capabilities. We utilize high-precision CNC machining centers and mirror/standard EDM stations to fabricate multi-cavity molds with collapse features to ±0.005 mm accuracy. Slow-speed wire EDM systems ensure ultra-fine definition of fold ribs and embossed logo cavities. Production occurs on precision LSR injection molding machines, equipped with servo-driven metering pumps for consistent shot weights and accurate color dosing. Post-molding, pneumatic trimming stations remove flash, while automated AutoDryers and controlled curing ovens finalize part hardness and elasticity. Quality control takes place under Class 8 cleanroom conditions, where certified inspectors employ 3D optical projectors, durometers, and leak-test rigs to validate each bowl’s dimensions, fold-line resilience, and water-tight performance. Integrated automated packaging lines then place each bowl into eco-friendly cartons, maintaining product integrity from our factory to your customers.
