Furthermore, AGVs equipped with IoT sensors facilitate real-time data exchange, enabling dynamic route planning and adaptive navigation.
 

Automated Guided Vehicle Market Trends

Driver: Remarkable shift to mass customization from mass production

Due to globalization, several industries are shifting to mass customization from mass production. The frequently changing lifestyle of people, varying regulatory standards in different countries, and evolving customer demand for various products across the globe are the factors that are driving the companies to adopt customizations on a large scale to meet their customer demands. Unlike traditional manufacturing, these companies cannot have a standard design of a product to be manufactured. The companies have to modify their production facilities, customize the product designs, and accordingly customize their processes to meet clients' requirements. This leads to the need to make infrastructure and process changes, thereby increasing business expenses. In cases where conveyor systems are used, the changes in infrastructure can be a tedious and costly affair. On the other hand, implementing AGVs to carry out the transportation of materials allows the process to be flexible, thus keeping the costs low, and increasing efficiency and profit margins. Hence, the shift to mass customization is driving the AGV market growth.

Restraint: High installation, maintenance, and switching costs associated with AGVs

Huge capital expenditure is required to install and set up AGVs. The high cost can discourage manufacturing companies from choosing high-end AGVs. Small enterprises cannot afford automated systems and, hence, opt for traditional/manual handling forklift trucks. Additionally, the cost of maintaining AGVs, which varies according to the age, type, location, number of shifts per day, and condition of the equipment, also acts as a barrier to the growth of this market. For instance, AGVs used in the manufacturing, chemicals, and construction industries have a high maintenance cost. Moreover, it is difficult for companies to invest in automation solutions due to high capital spending and a long payback period.

The costs associated with the overall setup of AGV systems are high as these vehicles are programmed and require navigation and communication systems to interact with other material handling equipment. The average payback period for AGVs usually ranges from 3 to 5 years. Therefore, it is difficult for many companies to invest in AGVs due to high capital spending and a long payback period. Furthermore, warehouse operators need to change warehouse layouts to support AGV systems. While designing new layouts, companies need to focus on key aspects such as worker safety, space utilization, and easy accessibility to items. Companies spend a considerable amount on infrastructure development. Thus, the impact of the high setup cost on the growth of the AGV market is considered to be high. Determination of the exact number of AGVs required is another important consideration for deploying AGVs across an industrial facility. As material handling requirement in some industries fluctuates according to the market demand or their production cycle, companies cannot precisely predict the number of AGVs required in their facilities. Thus, high capital investment acts as a key restraint for the growth of the AGV market.

Opportunity: Increasing focus on industrial automation by SMEs

The initial cost of AGV solutions is high, depending on the integrated battery type and navigation technology. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) find it difficult to adopt automation technologies in material handling due to the high initial cost, and these technologies are mostly affordable to large-scale industries. Factors such as rising labor costs (in developed economies like the US), quality concerns, and limited skilled workforce hinder the growth and profitability of these SMEs. Therefore, despite high initial capital investments, SMEs are moving toward automated warehouse operations as automation helps them compete globally with bigger market players. AGVs can help SMEs to be more competitive and deliver significantly enhanced levels of productivity, efficiency, and profitability. Many SMEs have started investing in AGVs to increase their global competitiveness. Similarly, SMEs from the e-commerce, automotive, food & beverages, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals industries are expected to deploy AGVs in the coming years.

Challenge: Technical challenges related to sensing elements

The real-time technical challenges related to any sensing element in material handling equipment could stop the entire process. For instance, an AGV will not react to provided commands effectively if the sensing element of the AGV is not installed correctly. Failure of the sensor in this system would halt the entire process as a sensor is the most critical element of any AGV system for navigation and other operations. Moreover, any fault in the control software may lead to improper functioning of the AGVs; this could delay the entire production process. Mechanical failures can result from improper maintenance, causing loss of production and performance. Hence, regular maintenance is crucial for the smooth functioning of AGVs.

Market Definition

Automated guided vehicles (AGVs) are portable, automatic vehicles and load carriers that can travel on the floor without a manual operator. They are used for material handling in various industries. These vehicles safely handle and transport all kinds of products, eliminating the requirement for human intervention in production, logistic, warehouse, and distribution environments. They increase the efficiency and productivity of industries, as well as reduce product damages and labor costs. AGVs are an integral part of manufacturing processes and are indispensable in the material handling industry.

The AGV ecosystem comprises manufacturers of AGV products and solutions. The AGV market is diversified, consisting of companies from different regions of the world competing across its value chain to sustain their position and increase their market share. The AGV market is likely to witness significant growth in the coming years due to the surging demand for automation in the automobile, e-commerce, healthcare, and other key industries.
