AGV Robotization: The Solution
John Hayes, Director of Sales | Balyo USA
According to Grand View Research, the global market for automated forklift trucks will have an annual growth of 15.6% through 2025; Deloitte confirms this analysis and adds that the robotization and automation rate will reach 87% within ten years (all machines included).
The falling purchase price of robots, resulting from streamlining installation processes, make it possible to massively democratize their use. All this encouraged by promises of 20 to 30% increases in productivity with short payback cycles (most around one year for ROI).
Businesses which have invested in robotics quickly realize the impact of increased productivity and continue investing. There is no “turn back syndrome” for these solutions; the increases in competitiveness and quality push businesses to adopt a continuous robotics policy.
