貨櫃裝卸設備市場概況
預計2024年全球貨櫃裝卸設備市場規模將達80.3億美元,到2030年將達到103.1億美元,2025-2030年複合年成長率為4.4%。碼頭自動化,即以自動化設備和流程取代全部或部分人工作業,已成為全球貨櫃裝卸設備市場的關鍵趨勢。
PubMed Central 最近發表的一項研究發現,全球僅有 3% 的貨櫃碼頭實現全自動或半自動化,這表明該領域具有顯著的成長潛力。貨櫃碼頭自動化發展直到最近十年才真正加速,在 20 世紀 90 年代和 21 世紀初成長非常緩慢之後,2012 年至 2021 年期間有 47 個碼頭實現了自動化。隨著近期的發展,這一趨勢繼續增強,例如 2022 年初宣佈在釜山建造一個新的半自動化貨櫃碼頭,該碼頭最終將在三個泊位處理超過 200 萬個標準箱。碼頭自動化是由標準化作業、減少人力、增加處理能力和提高生產力的需求所驅動,儘管需要大量資本投入,但這對港口營運商來說是一個越來越有吸引力的選擇。
自動導引運輸車(AGV) 因其能夠在無人干預的情況下自主執行煞車、轉彎、導航和搬運任務,已成為港口業務中的重要組成部分。 AGV 技術的演變代表了貨櫃搬運設備市場的關鍵趨勢,導航演算法的不斷改進帶來了營運效率的提升。最近的研究表明,專為港口環境設計的路徑規劃演算法已取得顯著進展,能夠應對貨櫃碼頭內障礙物數量眾多且分佈複雜所帶來的獨特挑戰。諸如改進的 JPS 混合演算法和針對關鍵障礙物的 DWA 演算法等創新技術已顯著縮短導航時間,減少轉彎次數,並減少與未知障礙物的碰撞。
鑑於港口環境的複雜性,此類技術改進尤為重要。港口環境中的障礙物形態各異,結構複雜,且由於貨物的不斷移動而頻繁變化。隨著港口持續投資自動化,對導航能力更強、更先進的自動導引車 (AGV) 的需求將成為貨櫃裝卸設備市場成長的關鍵動力。
環境因素正日益影響全球貨櫃裝卸設備市場,港口和碼頭營運商正在尋求更環保的技術來減少碳排放。在這方面,一個顯著的發展是自動導引車 (AGV) 的演變,從第一代柴油液壓引擎動力來源的AGV發展到最新一代採用GPS導航和電池動力來源的AGV。這些新車型具有顯著的環境效益,例如零二氧化碳排放和降低噪音污染,同時保持了高達每秒六公尺的運行速度。鹿特丹APMT碼頭採用了名為「Lift AGV」的AGV,將貨櫃起重能力與環保操作結合,反映了這一趨勢。隨著全球環境法規日益嚴格,港口面臨越來越大的減少環境影響的壓力,對環保型貨櫃裝卸設備的需求預計將大幅成長,從而推動該領域的技術創新和市場擴張。這一趨勢與航運和港口產業普遍開展的永續性措施一致,使環保性能成為設備市場的關鍵差異化因素。
現代貨櫃碼頭依靠先進的資訊技術來最佳化營運,這是貨櫃裝卸設備市場的另一個關鍵趨勢。先進的碼頭操作系統 (TOS) 現已成為大多數位頭的標準配置,用於控制和最佳化整個設施內的貨櫃運輸和儲存。這些系統與 RFID、光學字元辨識 (OCR) 和起重機防搖系統等技術相輔相成,以提高操作的精確度和效率。透過自動卡車閘門實現閘門功能的自動化是資訊科技正在改變貨櫃裝卸作業的另一個領域。
將這些技術與設備整合,可以創建智慧系統,最佳化貨櫃運輸,減少等待時間,並提高碼頭的整體吞吐量。隨著資料在港口業務中的價值日益提升,對具有增強連接性和資訊處理能力的貨櫃裝卸設備的需求也日益成長。正在進行的設備協調演算法改進研究進一步強化了這一趨勢,例如,降低港口環境中多輛自動導引車 (AGV) 之間路徑碰撞機率的研究證明了這一點。
影響全球貨櫃裝卸設備市場的一個重要趨勢是人們越來越關注碼頭營運的投資收益(ROI) 和營運效率。研究表明,碼頭營運商和投資者在向新設備投入資源之前,會仔細分析實現自動化投資回報所需的時間。這種財務審慎態度推動了對能夠在整個生命週期中展現明顯營運效益和成本節約的設備的需求。市場正在透過技術創新來提高生產力,同時降低人事費用。例如,遠端操作的岸邊起重機雖然仍然需要人工,但需要操作員具備不同的技能,而且與傳統起重機操作員相比,工資水平可能更低。此外,專注於碼頭業務中特定的高回報方面(例如,自動實現堆場內集裝箱的垂直轉運)的半自動化解決方案,為尋求在不實現完全自動化的情況下進行漸進式改進的碼頭提供了選擇。全球港口都在推行待開發區和棕地自動化計劃,主要專注於堆場業務,包括堆疊起重機和水平運輸。
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.
