A swing arm type intelligent feeding device and method. The intelligent feeding device comprises a food storage vessel (1), a food feeding disk (2), a weighing sensor (3), a controller, and a swing arm feeding assembly (4); the food feeding disk (2) is provided on one side of the food storage vessel (1); the weighing sensor is provided under the food feeding disk (2); the swing arm feeding assembly (4) comprises a swing arm (42) and a mechanical gripper (41); the mechanical gripper (41) is driven by the swing arm (42) to move above the food storage vessel (1) and the food feeding disk (2), so that the mechanical gripper (41) grabs the food in the food storage vessel and puts the food into the food feeding disk (2); then the food in the food feeding disk is weighed by the weighing sensor (3); if the weight of the measured food in the food feeding disk is lower than a preset demanded weight of food, the controller controls the mechanical gripper (41) to continue grabbing the food in the food storage vessel and put the food into the food feeding disk. Intelligent feeding is implemented, and precise measuring and grabbing of certain food such as granular solid food is also implemented.
