BITO U-Turn Container Reduces Empty Footprint by Sixty-Four Percent
The BITO U-Turn turnover container is engineered efficiently for industrial and commercial use, reducing empty storage volume by 64% to cut warehousing and transport costs per truck journey. Its vertical wall structure maximizes interior capacity without expanding its footprint. A simple 180° rotation converts it from a space-saving nested configuration into a stable, stackable transport unit, compatible with manual handling and automated systems for seamless integration into varied intralogistics processes.
BITO U-Turn Integrates Sepioo E-Ink Display With Four Sensors
BITO-Lagertechnik integrates a Sepioo(R) E-Ink display onto the U-Turn container, combining LED indicators with temperature, motion, and location sensors. Real-time measurement streams flow seamlessly into ERP and WMS platforms, enabling live visibility of container status directly on the label. This unified setup defines a continuous digital infrastructure for process optimization, centralized documentation, and inventory trackingâeliminating the need for external scanners or printed labels while enhancing critical traceability across logistical operations.
Smart U-Turn launches integrated reusable container eliminating external scanners
As the first market-ready, fully integrated reusable container solution, Smart U-Turn eliminates external scanners and labels by embedding identification, monitoring, and display capabilities within structure. Every intralogistics operation, from order picking through final delivery, becomes paperless and automatic, reducing manual tasks and errors. Its modular display is designed for indoor and outdoor environments, scalable across various workflows, retrofittable onto existing containers, and planned for integration throughout additional BITO product lines.
Sensor-driven replenishment and freshness modeling ensure precise inventory management
Sensor-driven replenishment and freshness modeling delivers precise, demand-oriented inventory control by continually monitoring metrics. Individual parts and container contents are uniquely identified with modules, while internal temperatures are tracked in real time. Any sudden deviations trigger immediate alerts displayed on screens. This transparency allows supply chain managers to optimize maintenance schedules, cleaning cycles, and relocation workflows with pinpoint accuracy, reducing spoilage risks and enhancing operational reliability across warehouse logistics operations.
LED sensors enable twenty percent faster Pick-by-Light order picking
Integrated LED sensors built into the container provide direct Pick-by-Light guidance at the unit. By indicating precise picking locations, they accelerate order fulfillment, resulting in a twenty percent increase in picking speed and a twenty-five percent reduction in picking mistakes. Real-time order and item data are presented digitally on the containers E-Ink display, eliminating the need for manual paperwork, enhancing accuracy, and ensuring error-free removal of goods during all operations.
Continuous Cold Chain Monitoring Ensures Last Mile Delivery Precision
Continuous monitoring of the cold chain is maintained by integrated temperature sensors throughout the final mile journey from the warehouse to the customers doorstep. The E-Ink display records real-time delivery volumes and instantly flags any temperature deviations. Drivers receive step-by-step digital instructions, minimizing transport and delivery mistakes. In addition, visual cues guide them through container return and storage procedures upon tour completion, ensuring efficient handling and compliance with logistical protocols.
BITO U-Turn Container Revolutionizes Reusable Logistics With Integrated Sensors
The intelligent BITO U-Turn rotary stacking container with integrated Sepioo(R) display transforms reusable logistics by combining compact volume reduction, sustainability, and sensor integration. Continuous data capture of temperature, movement, location, and LED signals eliminates paperwork and manual scanning. Seamless ERP/WMS integration and modular retrofit capability automate processes, boost transparency, and adaptability. From warehouse storage to last-mile delivery monitoring, it enhances efficiency, traceability, and error resilience across the entire supply chain.
