Revolutionizing Warehouse Logic: Zikoo Robotics Launches the Six-Way Shuttle System

Apr 30, 2025 | Technical Articles

As e-commerce and global supply chains continue to evolve, traditional warehousing systems are struggling with low space utilization, slow response times, and long deployment cycles. Now, Zikoo Robotics is leading a new era of intelligent warehousing with the launch of the world’s first mass-produced Six-way shuttle system—a groundbreaking solution that redefines pallet storage using robotic intelligence.


The World’s First Commercialized Six-Way Shuttle

Zikoo’s Six-way shuttle is not just an upgrade—it’s a full-scale leap beyond traditional four-way shuttle, stacker cranes, and shuttle boards. After two years of intensive development and factory testing, this fully standardized system delivers high-speed, high-density automatic 3D warehouse capabilities with unmatched flexibility and cost efficiency.
