Material handling encompasses a broad spectrum of operations, such as movement, storage, protection, and management, that occur during the manufacturing, warehousing, distribution, consumption, and disposal of items and materials. It is now regularly carried out using automated material handling equipment to decrease human interference and boost logistics management.
One of the key factors anticipated to propel the rise in automated material handling equipment sales over the forecast period is the integration of new technologies like AI, IoT, machine learning, and robots. By enabling efficient and real-time order picking in production operations, these technologies enable businesses to expedite their material handling processes.
Moreover, distribution centres using advanced technology, like Autonomous Guided Vehicles (AGV), allow businesses to manage massive amounts of repetitive material moves, leading to higher productivity. With the use of such technology, automobiles may easily change their navigational routes while receiving real-time feedback from their immediate surroundings.

Booming e-commerce Sector to Support Market Expansion
Process automation is in great demand due to the worldwide expansion of the e-Commerce sector. Automated technologies are increasingly being used by Walmart, Amazon, and other large retailers to carry out tasks accurately, quickly, safely, and affordably.
For instance, in January 2021, Amazon signed a contract with Baylo, a French robotic software business. The design and development of new robotic systems for material handling vehicles will benefit from this cooperation. Also, this tactical move will enhance Amazon’s material handling procedures in its warehouses.
Competitive Landscape
The automated material handling equipment market is extremely competitive. Key players in the automated material handling equipment market are using growth tactics such as product launches, significant investment in research & development, and partnerships and acquisitions to maintain the intense competition.
