The Japan Automated Material Handling Equipment Market Size is expected to reach USD 12,132 Million by 2032, at a CAGR of 9.5% during the forecast period 2022 to 2032.

Market Overview

Automated material handling systems are computer-controlled systems that aid in the safe, on-time, and low-cost delivery of commodities. They contribute to improved material transportation, storage, and retrieval efficiency. Automated guided vehicles, for example, employ embedded floor wires to lead autonomous cars to various areas across the factory. Because controlling the manufacturing plant has become a vital function, the relevance of the automated material handling equipment sector in Japan is increasing at an exponential rate. In addition, the companies in Japan's automated material handling equipment market share can only afford a total lockdown for a limited period before needing to adjust their investment plans. Furthermore, the number of COVID-19 cases is projected to decline shortly as a COVID-19 vaccine is now available on the market. This is also projected to result in the re-start of Japan's automated material handling equipment firms at full capacity, assisting the Japan automated material handling equipment market to recover by the beginning of 2022.
