Automated Material Handling Equipment and Systems Market Growth and Production Forecast tilI 2016 –
Material handling generally refers to short distance mobility between an automobile and a building, and within the boundaries of buildings. It uses a broad range of automated, semi-automated and manual equipment. Material handling equipment and systems are mechanical equipment and systems used to move, store, control, and protect materials, products and good during the course of manufacturing, circulation, consumption and clearance. This generates utility by means of storage, handling, and control of materials. The prime goals of these systems are development of product quality, productivity and labor safety, and decline in labor costs, operating costs and lead time for manufacturing.
One of the key driving factors for the global automated material handling equipment and services market is the increase in automated adoption. Another aspect boosting growth of this market is the focus on safe conditions for working in industries. Besides, the advancing applications in case of e-commerce evoke the companies to react rapidly as far as outbound and returns logistics is concerned, and this simplifies the processes of ordering. Moreover distribution systems and automation warehouses satisfy the logistic needs of this sector.
