If your Voluas VL001 pet feeder is having problems with portion control, you may have an issue with your portion switch. The portion switch is a small electronic switch that gets activated as the main drive gear turns, letting the motherboard know how much food was dispensed.
This replacement requires special skills like wire stripping and soldering.
