Case study on the production of a sand table model for new energy storage
1. Design concept
Based on modern energy storage power stations, highlighting a sense of technology and industrial aesthetics. The model adopts a 1:100 scale, focusing on core equipment such as battery packs, photovoltaic arrays, and control rooms, while incorporating environmental elements such as surrounding roads and vegetation, with an overall restoration rate of over 90%.
2. Production process
(1) Infrastructure construction
Use high-density foam board to cut terrain and shape micro slope and cable trench
Equipment such as battery packs and transformers use 3D printed ABS parts to ensure precise proportions
Photovoltaic panel array printed with acrylic UV, surface covered with matte film to simulate real reflection
(2) Detail processing
The cable system is fixed with thin copper wire and transparent resin, simulating real wiring
Micro LED light strips are embedded in the control room windows to enhance the nighttime effect
Spraying industrial ash on metal parts and applying old paint to increase the texture of wear and tear
(3) Environmental integration
The road is paved with a mixture of epoxy resin and quartz sand, simulating the texture of asphalt
The surrounding vegetation adopts dyed moss and micro trees, forming a contrast with industrial equipment
Add a rotatable fan (magnetic levitation base) to enhance dynamic realism
3. Coloring and texture
Main color scheme: Technology gray (equipment body)+Industrial blue (cable tray)+Warning yellow (key identification)
Aging treatment: adding rust to the metal edges using dry sweeping techniques, resulting in slight fading of the edges of the photovoltaic panel
Light and shadow effects: Install adjustable angle spotlights at the top to simulate lighting changes at different times
4. Final presentation
The overall design adopts a 15 ° overhead angle, taking into account both equipment details and scene depth
Dynamic elements such as fans and lighting enhance interactivity
Surface sprayed with matte protective agent to avoid reflection affecting observation
