US Warehouse Automation Market: Exploring Potential and Innovation

LOS ANGELES - Feb. 23, 2023 - PRLog -- Automating warehouse operations helps cut down on manual labor. To increase accuracy and efficiency, it automates warehouse jobs using software, hardware, and procedures. Improved security, more effective data management, less human error, and better safety are some of the main advantages of warehouse automation.

At present, more than 80% of warehouses are devoid of any kind of automation. In comparison, over the past ten years, only 5% of warehouses have made use of advanced automation technology and solutions.

Estimates indicate that 42% of distribution centers and warehouses are expected to make investments in technology and automation in 2018. According to statistics from Peerless Research Group's (PRG) 2018 annual survey, 14% of respondents planned to purchase AGVs, 25% planned to invest in robotics, and 40% planned to purchase conveyors and sortation equipment. An extra 49% intended to spend money on the WES, WMS, or WCS software that controls the machinery.

What are the Lucrative Markets for Warehouse Automation in the US?
Atlanta, Dallas/Fort Worth, Chicago, Los Angeles/Inland Empire, and New York/New Jersey are the "biggest and most competitive industrial markets."

The COVID-19 pandemic's greatest immediate commercial impact was consumers' migration to online purchasing, which sparked a rise in demand for eCommerce warehouse and distribution services. In addition to dealing with their own labor shortage, supply chain problems, and transportation issues, warehouses were also trying to keep up with increased demand, which presented a number of continuous hurdles. Flexibility is crucial for warehouses to thrive in a rapidly shifting and unpredictable environment.

How COVID-19 Impacted the Warehouse Automation Industry in the US?
Labor Issues: Workers at warehouses and distribution facilities faced the challenging possibility of keeping up with a practically impossible workload due to the shift in consumer demand to online retailers prior to the pandemic. The rate of employee turnover in warehouses is infamously high. Automation techniques can lessen the strain on these people and perhaps make the workplace a safer place to work.

Innovation in Warehouse Automation
Fetch Robotics and Korber recently unveiled a new case-picking solution for distribution facilities that would increase productivity and safety, whereas KNAPP and GEODIS recently announced a USD 52 million agreement to develop a highly automated warehouse system.
