About Project

This is a 1:1 smart pet feeder mock-up made for Papifeed. We have it printed with SLA technology in one piece and apply the stickers to the surface.

Solution

  • Step 1: We split the model into cover, body and speaker, for the convenience of printing and post-processing.
  • Step 2: We arrange the parts in software and add necessary supports. Then 3D print them with SLA ABS-like Resin in one piece. The layer thickness we set is 0.05mm and we control the tolerance within ±0.1 mm.
  • Step 3: When printing is completed, rinse the models with IPA and post-cure them with UV. Cut off all the supports, spray with putty, then polish with sandpaper.
  • Step 4: Color the parts with matte paint, then assemble them together, and glue the stickers onto the surface.
