This autonomous forklift market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.

The increasing demand for automated warehouses is expected to drive the growth of the autonomous forklift market going forward. Automated warehouses refer to the systems used for warehouse operations with automated material handling equipment integrated with artificial intelligence and robotics.

Manufacturers are adopting autonomous forklifts for their operations as they offer a significant improvement in productivity, reduce product damage, improve safety and efficiency, and reduce labor costs. These benefits have encouraged industries to embrace the use of autonomous forklifts, thereby increasing their demand.

For instance, in December 2021, according to Conveyco, a UK-based material handling equipment supplier, at least 6,20,000 shipments of various warehouse automation technologies were shipped worldwide. Therefore, the increasing demand for automated warehouses is driving the demand for autonomous forklifts.

New product innovation is the key trend gaining popularity in the autonomous forklift market. Major companies operating in the autonomous forklift market are focused on developing technologically advanced products to strengthen their market position. For instance, in March 2022, OTTO Motors, a US-based self-driving technology company, introduced the OTTO Lifter, the smartest autonomous forklift on the market.

This new technology is designed to automatically pick up and drop off pallets. In complex contexts, the OTTO Lifter can make real-time decisions and can find a pallet if it is tilted, modify behavior in extremely dynamic surroundings, and determine the optimal route on its own, unlike other autonomous forklifts on the market. The OTTO Lifter smoothly navigates traffic and obstacles with dynamic path planning, lane tending, intelligent pallet detection, and stretch-wrap piercing to deliver products to the right place, at the right time.

The countries covered in the autonomous forklift market report are Australia, Brazil, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Japan, Russia, South Korea, UK, USA.
