About this model

Make hair stand on end with this van de graaff generator 3D model. A lilac housing on dark rubber feet carries a white knob and a mint pilot lamp at the front. From it rises a clear acrylic column, and through its walls you can see the coral rubber belt and the lower steel roller on its white bracket. On top sits the large polished steel dome, 20 cm across, with a rolled steel collar where the column enters. On the right stands a small steel discharge sphere on a bent steel rod with a lilac insulating grip, 3.6 cm away from the dome, ready for a spark effect of your own. The column is a transparent part outside the bake, all other parts use baked PBR textures. It has nothing to do with the petrol Generator from the construction set, this one makes static charge. The model is 31 cm wide, 59 cm tall and has 13,428 triangles.

Good for

  • Physics lesson on static electricity
  • Science museum or fair exhibit
  • Mad lab scene in a horror or comedy game
  • Interactive shock gadget in a puzzle

Engine import notes

Unity GLB · FBX

Import the GLB with the glTFast package or use the FBX. 1 m in the file = 1 Unity unit.

Unreal Engine FBX

Use the FBX. The model is built in metres. Unreal works in centimetres and converts on import, so it arrives at real size (0.59 m = 59 cm).

Godot 4 GLB · FBX

Drag the GLB into the FileSystem dock. Godot 4 imports it directly, with materials. The FBX works too (Godot 4.3+ imports it natively).

Blender BLEND · GLB

Open the .blend directly, or import the GLB via File › Import › glTF 2.0.

Use it in: UnityUnrealGodotBlender
