Lifelike Animatronic Shovel-Tusked Elephant | Edu Exhibit Model

Name: Lifelike Animatronic Shovel-Tusked Elephant | Edu Exhibit Model
Brand: Yes Dino
Availability: InStock
Rating: 4.6 (30 reviews)

SKU	YAA-015
Product Name	Lifelike Animatronic Shovel-Tusked Elephant
Dimensions	Curve length 6 meters (including nose), height 2 meters
Key Movements	The nose curls and expands, shaking the head, wagging the tail, and blinking
Customization	Size, movement, color, sounds and lighting effects, etc.
Control System	Referencing popular science materials, we've reconstructed a dynamic model of the shovel-tusked elephant by incorporating motors and mechanical drive structures. The skin is adorned with lifelike synthetic fur, providing a remarkably realistic appearance. This model not only mimics various movements but also emits roaring sounds. Utilizing our approach to recreate extinct prehistoric animals for educational exhibits in natural history museums is both cost-effective and practical. The model is easy to maintain, transport, making it incredibly simple for you to create an engaging prehistoric animal exhibition.
Applications	Paleontological exhibitions, animal exhibitions, popular science exhibitions, parks, scenic spots, etc.

Product Description

YAA-015 Lifelike Animatronic Shovel-Tusked Elephant Model

A Paleontologically Accurate 1:1.2 Scale Restoration Based on Gomphothere 3D Fossil Scan Data, Meeting Professional Natural History Exhibition Standards

6m Long, 2m Tall

Precise 1:1.2 scale restoration—6m (20ft) curve length (including trunk), 2m (6.6ft) standing height. Features accurately reproduced 1.2m (3.9ft) shovel-shaped lower tusks and wide snout.

Cost-Effective & Modular

40% lower cost than traditional sculptural exhibits. Modular assembly reduces single-shipment volume by 35%.

Durable & Low-Maintenance

Q235 steel frame with aluminum alloy joints passed 100,000-cycle fatigue test. Maintenance interval extended to 6 months (only lubrication required).

Precision in Every Detail

Scientifically Accurate Restoration

Based on 3D scans of Gomphothere fossils, referencing dietary studies from the 'Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology'. Motion and sound synchronized with fossil evidence for enhanced science communication.

Immersive Sensory Experience

Synthetic fur density 120 hairs/cm² simulates real elephant skin texture. Combined with dynamic expressions (blinking every 3-5 seconds) for deeper audience immersion.

Advanced Drive System

Servo motors (torque ≥5N·m) + linkage transmission for 6-DOF motion: trunk curling (±90°), head shaking (±45°), tail swinging (0.5Hz). Positioning error ≤2mm.

Intelligent Control & Audio

PLC controller (Modbus protocol) with 20W dual-channel speakers (10 preset vocalizations). RGB LED strips (IP65) simulate diurnal/nocturnal activity states.

Advanced Motion Capabilities

Engineering-driven movements that bring the Shovel-Tusked Elephant to life

Expressive Trunk Motion

Curls and extends up to 1.5m with ±90° range, simulating feeding and exploratory behaviors.

Natural Head & Tail Movement

Head shakes ±45°, tail swings with 0.8m amplitude at 0.5Hz frequency for lifelike presence.

Subtle Lifelike Expressions

Blinking every 3-5 seconds and dynamic skin texture movement create an "alive" impression.

Immersive Audio-Visual

10 authentic vocalizations from a built-in library. IP65-rated RGB LEDs simulate time-of-day lighting for enhanced ambiance.

Applications & Benefits

Designed for venues seeking scientific accuracy, engagement, and long-term value

Science-Backed Education

Paleontological accuracy ideal for natural history museums. Pair with AR module (optional) for 3D fossil excavation animations (data sourced from Shanxi Museum virtual exhibit).

Cost-Effective Exhibition

40% lower cost than traditional exhibits, with 35% reduced shipping volume. Extended 6-month maintenance cycle minimizes operational costs.

Versatile Thematic Integration

Core: Museum permanent exhibits. Extended: Theme park "Prehistoric Corridors", science education bases, or "Cretaceous Night" tourism events.

Professional Application Guide

Tailored exhibition solutions and expert operation advice

Exhibition Pairing

Combine with shovel-tusked elephant molar fossils (showing wear patterns) and riverbed vegetation diorama (citing 2021 'Palaeoecological Journal' pollen data) for a complete "Form-Function-Environment" narrative.

Operation Specifications

Continuous operation ≤8 hours/day. Built-in temperature sensor auto-throttles performance above 45°C to prevent overheating.

Maintenance Guidelines

Quarterly inspection of linkage pin clearance (standard ≤0.1mm). Clean fur with pH-neutral detergent (pH 6-8). Avoid organic solvents.

Important Notice

This product is a paleontological restoration model based on modern engineering optimization. Due to fossil record limitations (extant specimen completeness ≤60%) and individual morphological variation, final details (e.g., fur coloration, micro-adjustment of joint angles) may reasonably differ from illustrations. Actual presentation effects may vary due to on-site lighting, spatial layout, and configuration. Specific dimensional tolerances (±5cm), motion parameters, and customization feasibility are subject to the final factory inspection report.
