Projects
DELTAMAKER 3D PRINTER
Zepto Industries worked hand-in-hand with the entire DeltaMaker team to realize the dream of designing a robust, delta-style 3D printer.
We designed the entire electrical system with a combination of off-the-shelf components, custom PCBAs, and custom wire harnesses. All off-the-shelf electrical components were sourced as well.
SMART CONTAINER
WePlenish and Zepto Industries partnered to create the world’s first smart container.
There were several iterations and ideas about how to determine a fill level inside of a container. The design and price constraints called for a simple solution that could be scalable for different sized containers. The smart container consists of several Infrared Emitter and Receiver pairs to determine the level of product inside. Those sensors connect to main PCBA which has a WiFi module, power management, user-interface, and sensor interface components.
We also oversaw all aspects of manufacturing including the design of all test fixtures.
BOAT LIFT LIMIT SWITCH
A local dock company came to us with a problem where the boat lifts they installed were open-loop and were often switched on and forgotten which led to disaster.
Together we brainstormed and Zepto Industries designed a drop-in safety circuit which connected inline with the existing motor and used a float switch to shut off the motor.
GATE ALARM
An owner of a fence company wanted to make gates around public pools “smarter” by alerting anyone in the area of an open gate.
A proof-of-concept was designed and created that would mount into an existing housing. It is battery operated, with a 100dB Piezo buzzer, uses a reed switch to detect gate state, and it has 3 time-delay settings via a switch.
WIRELESS SAFETY INDICATOR
Boat Load Mate worked with us to improve their boat safety product. Together, we developed a way for the boat operator to know when the Boat Load Mate is in the locked position to enhance the safety of the product.
