I want to produce an artificial nipple

which is very similar to mothers' nipple"

Yuichi Nakata, founder of Pigeon

With no available research data and know how, Mr. Nakata found his own unique
methods to study the sucking mechanism of babies.
Mr. Nakata's research data has contributed to the development of artificial teats.
What Yuichi Nakata saw was the unique movements of the tongues of babies when
they sucked milk. Scientifically named“Peristaltic Movements" much later, they
formed the basis of all the bottles and nipples made in the PIGEON research
center.
