Lotwork To Showcase Tools For Greater Efficiency In Warehousing and Last-Mile Delivery at ProMat 2025
March 13, 2025
Lotwork Inc. will exhibit its innovative low-power ring scanner, wearable computer, and wireless light tags at the ProMat trade show this year at Chicago’s McCormick Place March 17-20 (Building A Booth S1149). Along with displaying its products, the Canadian company will unveil two new solutions that utilize its leading-edge technology for warehousing and logistics.
As a company Lotwork is dedicated to enhancing supply chain efficiency and optimizing warehousing and logistics operations through low-power, Internet of Things (IoT), and ergonomic technology.
Products featured at the show are:
- The Hyco Wireless Ring Scanner. The world’s lightest and smallest ring scanner, W26 weighs just 20 grams (0.7 oz) and measures 1 cubic inch. It features ultra-low power consumption as its scanning engine uses only 5 percent of the power found in traditional engines. This tool enables workers to increase their order-picking in fulfillment and distribution while minimizing energy consumption.
- W563 Wearable Computer. This computing device features a global positioning system (GPS), a gravity sensor, a high definition camera, and 3.5-inch touch screen. Not only is this wearable lightweight at 245 grams, it has a user-friendly, ergonomic design to enhance worker comfort during hours of use.
- Wireless Light Tags. When placed on an item like a package, these tags upon activation will flash and beep, acting as a smart label for quick item identification and inventory location. Lotwork offers three products in this category. The L102 chargeable model provides a visual signal and audible alert. The L112 model comes with a multi-function button for user interaction in addition to a visual and audio signal. The third model, L218 E-ink offers alpha-numeric text and a barcode display along with visual and audible alerts plus button user interaction.
Lotwork’s New Solutions for Inventory Management and Delivery
At ProMat Lotwork will unveil two new solutions that take advantage of its technology to improve operational efficiency.
- FEFO Manager. This application using wearable computers and light tags ensures that food and pharmaceutical companies have an effective First Expired, First Out (FEFO) inventory strategy to minimize waste in warehousing products. A warehouse picker is equipped with a wearable computer that have a built-in optical character reader. When putting away product, a worker scans the item to notify the warehouse management system of the product’s location. When the time comes for item retrieval, light tags on the shelves direct the worker to the product that has the earliest expiration date. This solution enables companies to implement a FEFO inventory strategy without incurring the huge cost of automation.
- The GHE Solution. This last-mile delivery application uses our ultra-low power consumption IoT devices, wireless light tags, wearable computers, and Smart transportation AI to enable quick identification of the right packages for a customer drop-off. Handlers at the last-mile delivery station attach tags to each package. When the delivery driver stops the van at a customer stop, the light and sound signals will be activated automatically on the tag. These beacons enable the driver to locate the parcels immediately to avoid wasting any time in looking for the delivery packages. As a result, drivers work more safely and expend less effort in making package deliveries. Pilot testing conducted under Amazon Prime and UPS delivery methods have demonstrated that the GHE solution’s elimination of package hunting can increase a driver’s handling and carrying capacity by more than 100 percent. The end result is higher driver productivity and quicker deliveries.
To see Lotwork’s innovative products and learn more about its industry solutions, show attendees should come by Booth S1149 in Building A at McCormick Place. Lotwork will offer live trial experiences for visitors at its booth.
