Market Overview:
The global automated container handling equipment market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for automation in ports and distribution centers across the globe. Additionally, the growing trend of using robotics for container handling is also contributing to the growth of this market. The global automated container handling equipment market can be segmented on the basis of type into vertical operating system and horizontal operating system. On the basis of application, it can be segmented into port, pier, distribution center and other applications such as railway yards and airports cargo terminals.
Product Definition:
Automated Container Handling Equipment is machinery used to move and handle shipping containers. The importance of automated container handling equipment is that it increases the efficiency of loading and unloading ships, which can lead to cost savings for companies.
Vertical Operating System:
Vertical operating system (VOS) is a computer software used in container handling equipment to coordinate and control the movement of containers in a vertical stack. The VOS monitors the condition of each container, which includes its weight, temperature and other parameters. It also controls the operation of equipment such as elevators, hoppers and palletsizing systems that move containers from one level to another based on their conditions.
Horizontal Operating System:
Horizontal operating system (HOS) is a generic term used for any type of container handling equipment that moves containers in a transverse or lateral manner. The most common types of horizontal operating systems include stacker, forklift, and palletizing systems. Container handling equipment can be categorized into two major groups: single-drive and twin-drive. Twin-drive consists of two independent drives mounted on the same frame; whereas single-drive has only one drive on the frame.
Application Insights:
The distribution center application segment accounted for the largest market share in 2017 and is projected to expand at a CAGR of XX% over the forecast period. The growth can be attributed to increasing demand for automated container handling equipment in large scale distribution centers, where multiple containers are moved from one location to another on a daily basis.
Automated container handling equipment has several benefits including increased accuracy, safety and security as well as reduced operating costs which makes it highly suitable for use in distribution centers. Furthermore, growing e-commerce activities across the globe have led to an increase in the number of warehouses which need constant supply of goods from suppliers or manufacturers directly into their warehouse storage locations without any further processing or additional charges by third party logistics companies such asFedEx, UPS etc. This factor is expected to drive demand over the coming years.
The other application segment includes both domestic.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific region accounted for the largest market share in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The growth of this region can be attributed to increasing investments in developing port infrastructure, rising trade activities, and rapid industrialization & urbanization. Moreover, China has been observed as a key country for automation technology owing to various factors such as low labor cost and high demand from manufacturing industries.
The Asia Pacific regional market is also anticipated to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to growing adoption of automated systems across several major ports including Shanghai Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA), Singapore Changi Airport Terminal 1 (T1) & 2, etc. Furthermore, technological advancements coupled with increased focus on reducing operational costs are expected drive industry expansion at distribution centers across Europe during the same period.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for automation in material handling and logistics industry
- Rising popularity of container-based shipping model over traditional break bulk shipping model
- Proliferation of e-commerce and omni-channel retailing
- Growing need for faster and more efficient cargo handling to meet the rising demand for just-in-time delivery
- Stringent safety and quality regulations governing the maritime industry
