Driverless transport system LEO flow, scissor lift

BITO'S LEO driverless transport system automates the internal material flow – precisely, safely and cost-efficiently – without complex IT integration. The AGV system navigates track-guided via optical lines and markers, which enables maximum precision with minimal maintenance. The autonomous transport robots move along firmly defined paths, making transport processes transparent and safe. Should paths change, they can be quickly adapted independently by re-laying or removing the guide tapes – entirely without structural modifications or software adjustments.

The BITO LEO transport robots work independently of central IT and ensure a constant, traceable material flow between goods inwards, warehouse, production and dispatch. Thanks to the track-guided navigation and the clearly defined transfer points, transport processes are mapped safely and without disruption. The AGV transport system reduces travel distances, relieves employees and increases process reliability in intralogistics.

The track-guided navigation of the LEO driverless transport system significantly lowers investment and operating costs, even compared to free-navigating vehicles. Thanks to its simple handling and low maintenance requirements, the system remains economically viable in the long term. Fixed travel paths prevent collisions and increase safety for employees as well as reliability in daily operation.

The transport robots can turn on the spot by 90° or 180° – controlled via markers that specify the desired turning direction. This allows the vehicle to move precisely in narrow aisles and can enter loading or transfer stations in a space-saving manner. For short distances of up to 5 m, reversing is also possible. On straight stretches of up to 25 m, LEO can travel non-marking. This function reduces wear on floor markings, prevents track damage in areas with forklift traffic and saves material and effort in route planning.

LEO Flow with Scissor Lift – Flexible Material Flow at Different Heights

The LEO Flow with scissor lift is equipped with an automatic lifting unit and enables the pick-up and drop-off of containers at different heights. The integrated belt conveyor adjusts its height using the scissor lift, thereby compensating for height differences between conveyor systems, machines, or workstations. Containers, cardboard boxes, or small parts are picked up and dropped off laterally to the direction of travel.

Through height adjustment, systems with different transfer heights can be efficiently connected without additional conveyor technology or manual intervention. This increases process reliability, reduces physical strain, and ensures a consistently stable process. The driverless transport system with scissor lift replaces rigid conveyor technology routes and can also reliably transport non-standardised goods. This makes the transport robot particularly suitable for existing systems where an expansion or adaptation of existing conveyor technology is desired.

The AGV transport system is primarily used in production and assembly areas where machines, workstations, or storage zones are located on different levels. The LEO Flow with scissor lift handles the automatic loading and unloading of conveyor lines, shelves, or workstations there and ensures a consistent material flow across different levels.
