Small and medium-sized enterprises cannot render automated systems and opt for the manual or old method of material handling processes. This is expected to clog the sales of new equipment as well as hamper the growth of the automated material handling equipment market.

Opportunity:

Scope to increase the level of Order Customization and Personalization

As the preference for customized and personalized product orders is growing among online customers, different e-commerce companies are finding it hard to process complex orders through traditional processes. Moreover, those online customers expect the delivery of these personalized orders at a relatively low price and with the same speeds of delivery as the regular orders. The increasing popularity of customized orders has benefited the warehouse operators and manufacturers to increase the speed and efficiency of their sorting and picking processes to gain business success. Automated Material Handling systems such as ASRS, robotic pickers, AGV, conveyors, and automated sorters can help handle personalized orders at a higher and faster rate, along with decreasing error rates to a high extent.

Challenges:

 Revenue and Production Losses due to Undesired Downtime of Equipment

The failure or breakdown of Automated Material Handling equipment can have a remarkable impact on the overall growth of companies. Failures or Breakdowns lead to delays in the whole production process and result in huge production losses and a decline in plant performance. In capital-intensive industries such as metals, automotive, food & beverages, and heavy machinery, downtimes may cost an average of per minute 22,000$ to the company. Hence, such companies need to fund heavily in precautionary maintenance of their AMH equipment to avoid downtime and assure smooth functioning of equipment.
