AGVs or Automated Guided Vehicles are used for mobility work, such as product movement and transportation in manufacturing facilities, warehouses, and distribution centers, without the need for a fixed conveying system or human assistance. These robots are guided by a variety of methods, including lengthy cables or lines on the ground, radio waves, magnets, vision cameras, or lasers. The manufacturing and distribution sectors gain greatly from the use of AGVs thanks to their reduced operational costs, enhanced worker safety, and quicker turnaround times.
Factors Influencing the Market
Automated guided vehicles have become more popular in major industrial sectors as a result of the introduction of mobile robots throughout the world and initiatives to improve worker safety and productivity. Additionally, industries, such as automotive, healthcare, e-commerce, food and beverage, etc., are fast inclining towards automation, looking into the prevailing demand for high efficiency. According to Robotics and Automation News, the global installation of automated guided vehicles at seaports is expected to increase by 150,000. Therefore, such installations are expected to boost the growth of the automated guided vehicle market during the analysis period.
Automation of industrial facilities using AGVs speeds up production lowers the possibility of human error, and assists in meeting material handling capacity requirements. Additionally, a considerable rise in industrial production and a surge in urbanization are projected to create lucrative prospects for manufacturers of automated guided vehicles. AGVs are equipped with lasers, cameras, and other sensors in addition to safety and security measures, enabling safe operation within a business, facility, or industry.
The productivity of many activities should increase as a result of increased safety because it results in less operational downtime and expense. This factor thus significantly affects the demand for automated guided vehicles. However, there must be a large capital expenditure made in order to deploy autonomous guided vehicles. Automation of industrial facilities using AGVs lowers the possibility of human error and assists in meeting material handling capacity requirements. Additionally, a considerable rise in industrial production and a surge in urbanization are projected to create lucrative new market prospects for manufacturers of automated guided vehicles.
AGVs are equipped with lasers, cameras, and other sensors, enabling safe operation within a business, facility, or industry. An improvement in safety will increase the productivity of the task because it reduces downtime and costs associated with operations. Thus, this element will have a potential impact on the demand for automated guided vehicles.
However, deploying autonomous guided vehicles requires a substantial capital investment, which may complicate the growth process. Small businesses are also unable to invest in automated solutions, leaving them with little choice but to use manual forklifts. This may limit the demand for Automated Guided Vehicles during the study period.
Europe Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) Industry is Likely to Rule
Europe garnered the largest market share for AGVs globally, holding a share of 37.3%. The growth of the regional market is caused by diverse reasons like the rising demand for material handling equipment from manufacturing and retail industries, which is attributable to the expansion of e-commerce. Therefore, it is upsurging the demand for automated warehousing solutions. According to data provided by TradingPlatforms, 480.9 million people used e-commerce in Europe in 2020.
Further, the exceeding range of robust technologies reaching the market will present potential prospects for market growth.
These developments have led to market suppliers gradually applying automation. For instance, ThyssenKrupp’s material handling division announced in 2019 that the firm is planning to pour funds worth US$ 74.7 million (€70 million) into its European warehousing and logistics network.
The automotive, e-commerce, food and beverage, and healthcare sectors' explosive growth in developing nations like China, India, and South Korea has contributed to the Asia-Pacific AGV market growth, which is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 12.1% for the foreseeable future. Increased industrial activity in nations like India, Indonesia, Singapore, and Malaysia has caused a major investment share from top firms. Initiatives like "Make in India" are helping India draw global investment in the coming years.
