Connected feeders, treat dispensers and interactive toys — available as a PCBA scheme or a complete ODM product.
Start a brief
01Overview
A feeder platform for pet brands: start from a PCBA scheme or take the complete ODM product, including mechanism, app and cloud.
The design covers hopper and auger geometry, motor and gearbox, portion sensor, controller, Wi-Fi/BLE module, app and cloud API. Capacity, enclosure and feeding mechanism are adapted to the target pet size and food type.
The same electronics platform can drive treat dispensers and interactive toys with sound, motion and scheduled play. PCBA testing, finished-product testing and mass-production assembly are part of the programme.
02Key features
What the product actually changes.
Each feature should map to a specification, a test or a documented application — not a generic marketing claim.
App & cloud
Wi-Fi/BLE control, feeding history, schedules and firmware updates through a documented cloud API.
Camera / audio option
Optional camera, two-way audio and motion alerts for remote interaction.
Backup power
AC or USB-C power with battery backup so the schedule continues during a power cut.
Jam & level sensing
Motor current and hopper sensors detect jams, low food and dispense faults.
Easy-clean design
Removable hopper, bowl and food-contact parts designed for cleaning and material compliance.
03Working principle
How it works, stage by stage.
The app schedules a meal; the controller drives the motor and auger, the portion sensor confirms the dispense, and the result is reported back to the app.
- 01
Schedule
The owner sets meal times, portion size and alerts in the app.
- 02
Dispense
The MCU drives the motor and auger for the requested portion.
- 03
Verify
The portion sensor and motor feedback confirm that food was dispensed and the chute is clear.
- 04
Report
The result, low-food state and fault events are reported to the app and cloud.
04Model selection
Specifications and model selection.
Compare the series against the requirement. Every value should state its unit and test condition.
Representative configurations. Capacity, mechanism, radio and camera options are selected per product and pet size.
| Model group | Capacity | Connectivity | Power | Camera | Dispensing |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PF-2 | 2 L | Wi-Fi 2.4 GHz + BLE | DC 5 V / battery backup | Optional | 1–10 portions |
| PF-4 | 4 L | Wi-Fi 2.4 GHz + BLE | DC 5 V / battery backup | Optional | 1–20 portions |
| PF-6 | 6 L | Wi-Fi 2.4 GHz + BLE | DC 12 V / battery backup | Optional | 1–20 portions |
| Treat toy | 0.3 L | BLE | USB-C rechargeable | No | 1–5 treats |
- Food type and kibble size affect the auger and portion design.
- Camera, audio and cloud recording require a separate privacy review.
- Food-contact materials and certification are confirmed per market.
05Applications
Where it fits.
Add the operating requirement that makes this product a good match — not just an industry logo.
Automatic feeders
Scheduled meals with app control, history and low-food alerts.
Treat dispensers
Remote reward and training toys with adjustable treat release.
Interactive toys
Motion, sound and play schedules for enrichment and exercise.
Water fountains
