Accelerating Smart Warehousing Innovation in Asia
As one of Asia’s most influential logistics and intralogistics exhibitions, Logis-Tech Tokyo 2025 successfully concluded in Tokyo on September 12, bringing together leading automation providers, system integrators, and logistics innovators from around the world.
During the exhibition, ZIKOO Robotics showcased its latest intelligent warehousing technologies, including the newly launched U-bot omnidirectional stacker robot and the advanced Six-Way Shuttle system jointly demonstrated with strategic partner Phoxter. Through live demonstrations and technical presentations, ZIKOO highlighted its growing capabilities in Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems (ASRS), pallet shuttle automation, and Intelligent Warehouse solutions.
Strong Visitor Engagement Throughout the Exhibition
Over the course of the event, the ZIKOO booth attracted continuous attention from logistics professionals, manufacturing enterprises, warehouse operators, and automation partners across Asia-Pacific.
Visitors experienced hands-on demonstrations of:
- Intelligent pallet handling systems
- High-density storage technologies
- Automated pallet shuttle solutions
- Smart warehouse software coordination
The live interaction sessions allowed attendees to better understand how ZIKOO’s robotics systems improve warehouse flexibility, storage density, and operational efficiency.
The exhibition also marked the first official appearance of the U-bot omnidirectional stacker robot in the Japanese market, generating strong interest from companies in:
- Smart manufacturing
- Pharmaceutical logistics
- Cold chain warehousing
- Retail distribution
- E-commerce fulfillment
Meanwhile, the Six-Way Shuttle system presented jointly with Phoxter became one of the most discussed technologies during the show, demonstrating ZIKOO’s continuous innovation in next-generation Automatic 3D warehouse solutions.
Product Innovation Highlights
U-bot Omni-Directional Stacker Robot
As a new-generation pallet handling robot, the U-bot was designed specifically for dense storage and narrow-aisle warehouse environments.
Key Features
- 360-degree omnidirectional movement
- Smooth operation in aisles as narrow as 2.1 meters
- Rated load capacity up to 1,000 kg
- Maximum lifting height reaching 8 meters
- Intelligent navigation and dynamic path planning
- Integrated 3D vision and obstacle detection systems
By combining flexibility, precision, and intelligent control, the U-bot helps enterprises improve warehouse space utilization while maintaining high operational safety and efficiency.
Its compact design and agile movement capabilities make it highly suitable for high-density pallet storage applications.
Six-Way Shuttle System
The Six-Way Shuttle system represented another major innovation presented at Logis-Tech Tokyo 2025.
Unlike traditional Four-Way Shuttle systems that depend heavily on vertical lifts or stacker cranes, the Six-Way Shuttle integrates:
- Horizontal movement
- Vertical transfer capability
- Intelligent multi-directional routing
This advanced architecture significantly simplifies warehouse system layouts while improving storage density and operational flexibility.
Core Advantages
- Reduced dependence on fixed lifting equipment
- Higher warehouse space utilization
- More flexible warehouse layouts
- Simplified installation and maintenance
- Better scalability for future expansion
The system is ideal for:
- Manufacturing warehouses
- E-commerce fulfillment centers
- Automated pallet racking systems
- High-throughput logistics hubs
- Dense storage applications
With this breakthrough solution, ZIKOO Robotics continues expanding its leadership in intelligent pallet shuttle robotics and ASRS warehouse technologies.
Strengthening Global Partnerships
The exhibition also highlighted the growing cooperation between ZIKOO Robotics and Japanese partner Phoxter. Through synchronized product showcases and technical collaboration, both companies demonstrated a shared commitment to advancing intelligent warehousing technologies across the Asia-Pacific region.
This partnership further strengthens ZIKOO’s localization strategy and supports future expansion in overseas automation markets.
