Model with interactive lighting: a striking visual experience for Danfoss
Francisco Piqueras
When Danfoss asked us to create a model with interactive lighting for their trade fair booth, we knew it had to be more than just a technical representation. We wanted to design a piece that to attract attention, spark curiosity, and visually explain the desalination process.
Simplicity and effectiveness
The result was a 180 cm long model, full of detail and with a lighting system that guides the viewer through the water's journey in the desalination plant. A simple but very effective way to to capture attention and communicate how Danfoss technology works.
High-impact design and materials
From the beginning, we were clear that this model with interactive lighting It had to fulfill two functions: attract attention at the fair and faithfully represent the desalination system.. To achieve this, we combined durable materials with precise construction to guarantee a clean and professional finish.
Sturdy and lightweight structure
The main structure was manufactured with cast methacrylate and foamed PVC, Materials that offer lightness without sacrificing strength. This combination allows the model to be easy to transport and assemble, something essential in an event where every detail counts.
3D printing for precise details
For the smallest and most complex elements, we use 3D printing in polymer resin, This allowed us to accurately reproduce every component of the desalination plant. Thanks to this technology, we achieved a level of detail that adds realism and facilitates understanding of the system.
Monochromatic finish with accent points
The design follows a monochromatic finish, except for some elements highlighted in black and red. This aesthetic choice not only reinforces the visual identity of the model, but also guides the viewer's gaze towards the most important parts of the system. The base, also monochromatic, provides stability without detracting from the model's prominence.
Beyond appearance, every manufacturing decision responds to a clear objective: to make the model easy to understand, durable and visually appealing. We knew that in a trade fair environment, where the visitor's attention span is limited, every detail had to be designed to generate an immediate impact.
The power of interactive lighting
We knew that to capture the public's attention at a fair, the model needed something more than just an attractive design. That's why we incorporated an interactive lighting system that not only makes the model stand out, but also helps to explain the desalination process in a visual and dynamic way.
Moving lighting to simulate the flow of water
One of the most striking effects of the model is the lighting of the main water inlet and outlet pipes. We used Neopixel LED technology, This allowed us to program a moving beam of light that simulates the flow of water in the desalination plant. In this way, visitors can intuitively see how water is transported and treated within the system.
Highlighting the key components
In addition to the main ducts, we incorporated static LED lighting in the most important elements of the system, such as pumps and key components of the desalination plant. This lighting provides an extra level of detail and facilitates the identification of key points in the desalination process.
More than a model: a communication tool
Beyond being a visual representation of a desalination plant, this model with interactive lighting has become a true communication tool. Its design, lighting effects, and interactivity transform it into an engaging experience that encourages participation and facilitates understanding of the desalination process.
A didactic and explanatory tool
Thanks to its detailed design and strategic lighting, the model facilitates the explanation of the desalination process. Instead of using flat diagrams or digital presentations, visitors can see how the system works in real time, easily identifying each stage of the process. This form of visual learning is much more effective and easier to understand than any other traditional resource.
A reusable and versatile model
Another advantage of this model is its versatility. Although it was designed for a trade fair stand, Its impact extends far beyond the event itself. It can be used in client meetings, corporate presentations, or even in training centers to empower industry professionals. Its durable design and programmable lighting system make it a useful long-term investment.
Custom packaging for maximum protection
To ensure that the model with interactive lighting arrived at the fair in perfect condition, we designed a custom packaging that would protect each component during transport. We used resistant materials and a fastening system that prevents sudden movements, This packaging facilitates both transport and assembly at the event. It not only guarantees the model's safety but also allows for its reuse in future exhibitions without risk of damage.
Innovation at the service of exhibition
At IA Manufacturing, we are passionate about turning ideas into tangible models that attract, explain, and impact. With this model with interactive lighting For Danfoss, we have demonstrated how technology and design can transform a simple representation into a powerful tool for trade shows and events.
Commercial and promotional value
Thanks to its detailed structure, dynamic lighting system, and interactivity, the model not only fulfills its technical function, but also It captures the public's attention and facilitates communication. It is a resource that goes beyond exhibition, offering value both in training and in the presentation of technological solutions.
