세계의 오버헤드 컨베이어 시장 예측(-2030년)제품 유형, 용량, 자동화, 판매 채널, 기술, 최종 사용자 및 지역별 분석

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Overhead Conveyor Market is accounted for $2.29 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach $3.73 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 7.2% during the forecast period. Overhead conveyors are material handling systems that utilize a suspended track network and carriers to transport items across a facility. They optimize space by operating overhead, freeing up valuable floor space for other purposes. Overhead conveyors automate transportation, significantly enhancing efficiency, streamlining production processes, and reducing manual labour requirements.

According to a German Federal Environmental Agency study, electric motors account for more than 60% of Germany's power consumption in industrial manufacturing.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Increasing trend of industrial automation

E-commerce demands rapid order fulfilment, accurate inventory management, and efficient shipping, all of which rely heavily on optimized warehouse operations. Overhead conveyors automate processes like order picking, sorting, and packing while seamlessly transporting goods across large warehouse spaces. This optimizes space utilization, increases the speed of order processing, and allows for handling a higher volume of orders, all crucial in meeting the demands of the ever-expanding e-commerce industry.

Restraint:

High initial investment

High initial investment includes the cost of the conveyors themselves, the design and planning of the system, installation, and potential modifications to the facility to accommodate the system. These upfront costs can be substantial, making it less accessible for smaller businesses or those with limited capital. The high initial investment can deter potential buyers and delay projects, hindering wider adoption of overhead conveyor systems

Opportunity:

Integration with advanced technologies

Integration with advanced technologies like AI, IoT, and Big Data offers a significant opportunity for the Overhead Conveyor Market. By incorporating these technologies, overhead conveyors can be transformed into intelligent systems that provide real-time data on equipment health, material flow, and potential issues. Moreover, AI-powered optimization can boost routing efficiency, reduce bottlenecks, and enhance overall productivity within facilities. This seamless integration of advanced technologies makes overhead conveyor systems more efficient, reliable, and adaptable, attracting wider adoption across industries.

Threat:

Competition from alternative material handling solutions

Solutions like automated guided vehicles (AGVs), robots, and floor conveyors offer varying degrees of flexibility, adaptability, and cost-effectiveness that might prove more suitable for certain applications. AGVs allow for dynamic routing and don't require fixed infrastructure, while robotics solutions offer increased precision in certain tasks. These alternatives could capture market share, especially as they continue to evolve, thus posing a challenge to the dominance of overhead conveyor systems.

Covid-19 Impact

The COVID-19 pandemic had a mixed impact on the Overhead Conveyor Market; initially, it caused disruptions in supply chains, project delays, and reduced investments due to economic uncertainty. However, the pandemic also accelerated the need for automation in essential sectors like healthcare and food processing, increased the focus on safety and hygiene, and drove a surge in e-commerce that fuelled warehouse automation needs.

The I-beam trolley conveyors segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The I-beam trolley conveyors segment is estimated to hold the largest share. These systems utilize I-shaped beams as tracks, with trolleys suspended from the beam to carry and transport loads. They are known for their load-bearing capacity, durability, and adaptability. I-Beam Trolley Conveyors find applications across industries like manufacturing, assembly lines, distribution centres, and warehouses where there's a need to move heavy materials or products along a fixed path efficiently.

The logistics segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The logistics segment is anticipated to have lucrative growth during the forecast period. Overhead conveyors are used extensively in logistics for a variety of tasks, including sorting packages, order picking, automated loading and unloading of trucks, and transporting goods over long distances within facilities. By automating material flow within logistics operations, overhead conveyors enhance efficiency, reduce labour costs, improve order fulfilment speed, and minimize errors - all of which are core priorities for the logistics industry.

Region with largest share:

Asia Pacific commanded the largest market share during the extrapolated period owing to rapid industrialization, booming manufacturing, and a surge in e-commerce and infrastructure projects. Countries like China and India are investing heavily in manufacturing and logistics infrastructure, leading to increased demand for efficient material handling solutions like overhead conveyors. Additionally, the Asia Pacific region offers a strong manufacturing base and focus on automation technology, further contributing to the market growth.

Region with highest CAGR:

North America is expected to witness profitable growth over the projection period. Strong growth is seen in sectors such as manufacturing, automotive, and e-commerce and logistics. The region is known for its focus on advanced technologies, innovation, and the adoption of automation solutions. There's a strong emphasis on safety and productivity optimization, with overhead conveyors playing a vital role in enhancing efficiency and reducing labour costs. Additionally, with ongoing infrastructure development projects, the market is expected to see continued demand for overhead conveyor systems.
