Automated Guided Vehicle (Unit Load Carrier, Forklift Truck, Tow Vehicle, Pallet Truck, Assembly Line Vehicle) Market - Global Forecast 2023 - ResearchAndMarkets.com

The "Automated Guided Vehicle Market by Type (Unit Load Carrier, Forklift Truck, Tow Vehicle, Pallet Truck, Assembly Line Vehicle), Battery Type (Lead, Nickel, Lithium Ion), Application, Navigation Technology, Industry, & Geography - Global Forecast 2023" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The AGV market is expected to grow from USD 1.86 billion in 2018 to USD 2.74 billion by 2023, at a CAGR of 8.02% from 2018 to 2023.

In this report, segments such as type, navigation technology, application, battery type, industry, and geography have been covered. The report also discusses drivers, restraints, opportunities, and challenges pertaining to the market. The report gives a detailed view of the market across 4 main regions.

The overall market growth is driven by the factors such as rising demand for automation in material handling across industries, emerging e-commerce industry, growing requirement for workplace safety standards, increasing productivity owing to improved supply chain processes. However, high installation, maintenance, and switching costs and the initial price complexity of AGVs might restrain the growth of the AGV market.

AGVs based on laser guidance navigation technology accounted for the largest market size in 2017. Laser guidance is the most flexible system for vehicle movement and offers accurate navigation. It has reflectors mounted on walls, along with the vehicle's route. A rotating laser scanner mounted on the vehicle sends laser beams and detects its reflections, gathering information on distance and angle, which gets stored in the vehicle memory. The AGV can analyze its position based on this information.
