Key Highlights from the Logistics Automation Market Report 

 

1.  Mobile Robots are Expected to Witness Significant Growth 

• The main usage of logistics robots is in the form of automated guided vehicles (AGVs) in warehouses and storage facilities for transporting goods. AGVs play a vital role in reducing the cost of logistics as well as streamlining the supply chain. 
• Automakers are increasing their production and shipment units, indicating the usage of AGVs and AMRs (Autonomous Mobile Robots). For instance, according to BMW, in 2022, the Bayerische Motoren Werke AG (BMW) shipped over 2.5 million autos worldwide. 
• AMRs can adapt to different workflows, accommodate factory process changes, and allow integration with several top modules to meet payload requirements. This enables smart, reliable deliveries and optimizes overall processes. Consequently, AMRs are superior to AGVs regarding return on investment and productivity optimization.   
• In March 2023, PeakLogix announced its partnership with Peer Robotics to bring innovative robots to the material handling industry. Their collaborative autonomous mobile robot (AMR) is revolutionizing robotics and material movement with its ability to learn from humans in real time.  
• WEG announced the launch of the first version of the WMR (WEG Mobile Robot) in March 2023, which aims to enhance the operational efficiency of activities carried out in industries that require internal transport.    

2. Asia-Pacific Holds a Significant Market Share 

The Asia-Pacific warehouse automation market is rapidly expanding due to the region’s growing number of industries and their integration with automation to increase ROI. In Japan, the “New Robot Strategy” aims to establish the country as the leading hub for robotic innovation. The Japanese government already contributed more than USD 930.5 million in 2022 (according to the International Federation of Robotics). The manufacturing and service action plan includes initiatives like autonomous driving, advanced air mobility, and the creation of integrated technologies that are anticipated to form the basis of the next generation of robots and artificial intelligence. According to IFR, a budget of USD 440 million was given to robotics-related projects in the “Moonshot Research and Development Program” for five years from 2020 to 2025. 

The robust e-commerce sector in India is also significantly boosting the market’s growth. According to IBEF, India’s e-commerce market is expected to reach USD 111 billion by 2024 and USD 200 billion by 2026.   What are the Latest Developments in the Logistics Automation Market?
