货柜装卸设备市场概况
预计2024年全球货柜装卸设备市场规模将达80.3亿美元,到2030年将达到103.1亿美元,2025-2030年复合年增长率为4.4%。码头自动化,即以自动化设备和流程取代全部或部分人工作业,已成为全球货柜装卸设备市场的关键趋势。
PubMed Central 最近发表的一项研究发现,全球仅有 3% 的货柜码头实现全自动或半自动化,这表明该领域具有显着的成长潜力。货柜码头自动化发展直到最近十年才真正加速,在 20 世纪 90 年代和 21 世纪初增长非常缓慢之后,2012 年至 2021 年期间有 47 个码头实现了自动化。随着近期的发展,这一趋势继续增强,例如 2022 年初宣布在釜山建造一个新的半自动化货柜码头,该码头最终将在三个泊位处理超过 200 万个标准箱。码头自动化是由标准化作业、减少人力、增加处理能力和提高生产力的需求所驱动,儘管需要大量资本投入,但这对港口营运商来说是一个越来越有吸引力的选择。
自动导引运输车(AGV) 因其能够在无人干预的情况下自主执行煞车、转弯、导航和搬运任务,已成为港口业务中的重要组成部分。 AGV 技术的演变代表了货柜搬运设备市场的关键趋势,导航演算法的不断改进带来了营运效率的提升。最近的研究表明,专为港口环境设计的路径规划演算法已取得显着进展,能够应对货柜码头内障碍物数量众多且分布复杂所带来的独特挑战。诸如改进的 JPS 混合演算法和针对关键障碍物的 DWA 演算法等创新技术已显着缩短导航时间,减少转弯次数,并减少与未知障碍物的碰撞。
鑑于港口环境的复杂性,此类技术改进尤为重要。港口环境中的障碍物形态各异,结构复杂,且由于货物的不断移动而频繁变化。随着港口持续投资自动化,对导航能力更强、更先进的自动导引车 (AGV) 的需求将成为货柜装卸设备市场成长的关键动力。
环境因素正日益影响全球货柜装卸设备市场,港口和码头营运商正在寻求更环保的技术来减少碳排放。在这方面,一个显着的发展是自动导引车 (AGV) 的演变,从第一代柴油液压引擎动力来源的AGV发展到最新一代采用GPS导航和电池动力来源的AGV。这些新车型具有显着的环境效益,例如零二氧化碳排放和降低噪音污染,同时保持了高达每秒六公尺的运行速度。鹿特丹APMT码头采用了名为「Lift AGV」的AGV,将货柜起重能力与环保操作结合,反映了这一趋势。随着全球环境法规日益严格,港口面临越来越大的减少环境影响的压力,对环保型货柜装卸设备的需求预计将大幅增长,从而推动该领域的技术创新和市场扩张。这一趋势与航运和港口产业普遍开展的永续性措施一致,使环保性能成为设备市场的关键差异化因素。
现代货柜码头依靠先进的资讯技术来优化运营,这是货柜装卸设备市场的另一个关键趋势。先进的码头操作系统 (TOS) 现已成为大多数码头的标准配置,用于控制和优化整个设施内的货柜运输和储存。这些系统与 RFID、光学字元辨识 (OCR) 和起重机防摇系统等技术相辅相成,以提高操作的精确度和效率。透过自动卡车闸门实现闸门功能的自动化是资讯科技正在改变货柜装卸作业的另一个领域。
将这些技术与设备集成,可以创建智慧系统,优化货柜运输,减少等待时间,并提高码头的整体吞吐量。随着资料在港口业务中的价值日益提升,对具有增强连接性和资讯处理能力的货柜装卸设备的需求也日益增长。正在进行的设备协调演算法改进研究进一步强化了这一趋势,例如,降低港口环境中多辆自动导引车 (AGV) 之间路径碰撞机率的研究证明了这一点。
影响全球货柜装卸设备市场的一个重要趋势是人们越来越关注码头营运的投资收益(ROI) 和营运效率。研究表明,码头营运商和投资者在向新设备投入资源之前,会仔细分析实现自动化投资回报所需的时间。这种财务审慎态度推动了对能够在整个生命週期中展现明显营运效益和成本节约的设备的需求。市场正在透过技术创新来提高生产力,同时降低人事费用。例如,远端操作的岸边起重机虽然仍然需要人工,但需要操作员具备不同的技能,而且与传统起重机操作员相比,工资水平可能更低。此外,专注于码头业务中特定的高回报方面(例如,自动实现堆场内集装箱的垂直转运)的半自动化解决方案,为寻求在不实现完全自动化的情况下进行渐进式改进的码头提供了选择。全球港口都在推行待开发区和棕地自动化计划,主要专注于堆场业务,包括堆迭起重机和水平运输。
Container Handling Equipment Market Summary
The global container handling equipment market size was estimated at USD 8.03 billion in 2024, and is projected to reach USD 10.31 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 4.4% from 2025 to 2030. Terminal automation, encompassing the full or partial substitution of manned operations with automated equipment and processes, has emerged as a significant trend in the global container handling equipment market.
According to recent research published by PubMed Central, only 3% of the world's container terminals were found to be either fully or semi-automated, indicating substantial growth potential in this segment. The real acceleration of container terminal automation has occurred in the last decade, with 47 terminals being automated between 2012 and 2021, compared to a very gradual uptake in the 1990s and 2000s. This trend continues to gain momentum with recent developments such as the announcement in early 2022 of a new semi-automated container terminal in Busan that will eventually handle more than 2 million TEU with three berths. Terminal automation is driven by the need for operations standardization, reduction in manning, increased handling capacity, and productivity improvements, making it an increasingly attractive option for port operators despite the significant capital investment required.
Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) have become highly valued components of port operations due to their ability to autonomously perform braking, turning, navigation, and handling tasks without human intervention. The evolution of AGV technology represents a critical trend in the container handling equipment market, with continuous improvements in navigation algorithms enhancing operational efficiency. Recent research indicates significant advancements in path planning algorithms specifically designed for port environments, addressing the unique challenges posed by the abundance and arrangement of obstacles in container terminals. Innovations such as improved hybrid algorithms based on key obstacles for JPS and DWA algorithms have demonstrated significant enhancements in navigation time, reduction in the number of turns, and decreased collisions with unknown obstacles.
These technological improvements are particularly important given the complexity of port environments where obstacles vary in shape with complex arrangements and frequently changing positions due to constant cargo movement. As ports continue to invest in automation, the demand for more sophisticated AGVs with enhanced navigation capabilities represents a significant growth driver in the container handling equipment market.
Environmental considerations are increasingly influencing the global container handling equipment market, with ports and terminal operators seeking greener technologies to reduce their carbon footprint. A notable development in this direction is the evolution of AGVs from the first generation, powered by diesel-hydraulic engines, to the latest generation guided by GPS technology and powered by batteries. These newer models offer significant environmental benefits, including zero CO2 emissions and reduced noise pollution, while maintaining operational capabilities with speeds reaching up to 6 meters per second. The Rotterdam APMT terminal exemplifies this trend by employing 'lift AGVs' that combine container lifting capabilities with environmentally friendly operation. As environmental regulations become more stringent worldwide and ports face increasing pressure to reduce their environmental impact, the demand for eco-friendly container handling equipment is expected to grow substantially, driving innovation and market expansion in this segment. This trend aligns with broader sustainability initiatives across the maritime and port sectors, making environmental performance a key differentiator in the equipment market.
Modern container terminals rely on advanced information technologies to optimize their operations, representing another significant trend in the container handling equipment market. Advanced terminal operating systems (TOSs) are now standard in most terminals, controlling and optimizing the movement and storage of containers throughout the facility. These systems are complemented by technologies such as RFID, optical character recognition (OCR), and anti-sway systems in cranes, which enhance operational precision and efficiency. The automation of gate functions through automated truck gates represents another area where information technology is transforming container handling operations.
The integration of these technologies with equipment creates intelligent systems capable of optimizing container movements, reducing waiting times, and improving overall terminal throughput. As data becomes increasingly valuable in port operations, the demand for container handling equipment with enhanced connectivity and information processing capabilities continues to grow. This trend is further reinforced by ongoing research into improved algorithms for equipment coordination, as evidenced by studies on reducing the probability of path conflicts between multiple AGVs in port environments.
A critical trend influencing the global container handling equipment market is the increased focus on return on investment (ROI) and operational efficiency in terminal operations. Research indicates that terminal operators and investors carefully analyze the time required to realize returns on automation investments before committing resources to new equipment. This financial prudence is driving demand for equipment that can demonstrate clear operational benefits and cost savings over its lifecycle. The market is responding with innovations that enhance productivity while reducing labor costs, such as remotely operated ship-to-shore cranes that, while still manned, require operators with different skill sets and potentially lower pay scales compared to traditional crane operators. Additionally, semi-automated solutions that focus on specific high-return aspects of terminal operations, such as automating vertical movement of containers in the yard, provide options for terminals seeking incremental improvements without full automation. Ports globally are pursuing both greenfield and brownfield automation projects, primarily focusing on yard operations, including stacking cranes and horizontal transportation, indicating a strategic approach to modernization that prioritizes areas with the highest potential efficiency gains.
