Further key findings from the report suggest

• The Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) market is expected to grow from USD 1.89 Billion in 2018 to USD 3.25 Billion by 2026, at a CAGR of 6.8%. The crucial factors that drive the growth of the AGV market include increasing demand for automation in the handling of materials across industries, the emerging e - commerce industry, increasing requirements for safety standards in the workplace and increased productivity due to improved supply chain processes.
• In type, tow vehicles segment is expected to hold largest market share with a CAGR of 8.2% in 2026. The towing vehicle, also known as a tug, pulls carts carrying heavy loads without power.
• This is the most productive AGV used for towing and tugging because it can transport heavy loads with multiple trailers than a single forklift. The towing vehicle can automatically collect a load without a human interface or manually load / unload.
• On the basis of navigation technology, laser guidance technology is expected to hold largest market share with a CAGR of 8.45% in 2026. Laser guidance is the most flexible vehicle movement system and provides precise navigation. Reflectors have been mounted on the walls along the road of the vehicle.
• Onboard AGV is a rotating source of laser light that detects its reflections and receives distance and angle information that is stored in the vehicle memory. On the basis of this information, the AGV can calculate its position.
• In battery type, lead battery segment is expected to hold largest market share with a CAGR of 9.12% in 2026. The lead battery is used in the automotive and power industries as a energy storage solution/system.
• It’s one of the oldest types of re-chargeable battery and is best suited for automated vehicle guidance. In AGV systems, lead-acid batteries are generally used, as these batteries have the highest power-to-size ratio compared to conventional batteries.
• In application, transportation segment is expected to hold largest market share with a CAGR of 10.32% in 2026. Transport systems connect the receipt of goods, production, picking of orders and shipment of materials within the plant quickly and efficiently.
