The slat conveyor market is expected to show steady growth during the forecast period.
A slat conveyor is a type of transferring technology that moves products from one end to the other by using a chain-driven loop of slats. Slat conveyors are well-known for their ability to operate in harsh environments and handle wet or oily materials without damage. Such conveyor is used in businesses such as warehousing, manufacturing, automotive, chemical, and mining to control the orientation of objects. Favorable investments in the automobile industry and heavy material handling capabilities served as an important factor behind the slat conveyor industry growth.
Market Drivers
- Heavy material handling capabilities fuel the slat conveyor market growth.
Slat conveyors are built to handle heavy and bulky materials, making them ideal for industries that require dependable material handling solutions. Steel and automotive manufacturing companies' demand for slat conveyors due to their heavy loading ability, shows significant growth in the slat conveyor market. For instance, in September 2023, SMS Group India (SMI) announced the launch of SMI 400, a ground-breaking project. The project's goal is to more than double the capacity of the Electrics and automation business area.
- Favorable investments in the automobile sector bolster the slat conveyor market growth.
Ongoing investments in the automobile sector play a vital role in the growth of the slat conveyor market. The versatility and flexibility of slat conveyors make them an appealing option for the automobile industry with specialized conveying requirements. These advanced capabilities increase the adoption of slat conveyors in the automotive sector. For instance, according to the European Automobile Manufacturers Association, In 2021, the European Union's investment in automotive R&D increased by 0.5% to €59.1 billion per year. Additionally, In 2021 Mazda Toyota Manufacturing (MTM) facility completed the construction of its plants in Alabama which is expected to increase the production capacity by 1.3 million by the beginning of 2022.
- The expanding manufacturing sector drives the expansion of the slat conveyor market.
The growth of the manufacturing sector, particularly in industries such as automotive, food and beverage, chemical, and mining, drives demand for strong conveyor systems. The rising popularity of electric and hybrid vehicles is driving up demand for automobiles. Slat conveyors make it easier to transport heavy raw materials, components, and finished goods, making them a perfect choice for manufacturing businesses to move towards slat conveyors, which shows substantial expansion in the manufacturing industry. Additionally, according to the Press Information Bureau, the manufacturing sector's growth rate increased by 11.8% in 2021-2022.
Asia Pacific is anticipated to show significant growth.
Asia Pacific is expected to account for a major share of the slat conveyor market due to increasing investments in the automobile, and manufacturing sectors coupled with bolstering growth in mining. For instance, the Government of India announced the automobile PLI Scheme, which will attract over Rs 42,500 crore in new investment over the next five years. Additionally, according to the BKPM, investment in the manufacturing sector increased by 23.9% from IDR104.6 trillion in the first quarter of 2019 to IDR129.6 trillion in the first quarter of 2020. Western Coalfields Ltd (WCL), a subsidiary of Coal India, opened three new coal mines in Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh, with a combined annual production capacity of 2.9 million tonnes (MT). According to the Ministry of Mines, in 2021-2022, there are 545 operating metallic minerals and 774 operating non-metallic minerals mines.
Market Challenges
- High maintenance will restrain the growth of the slat conveyor market.
Slat conveyors require routine maintenance to ensure smooth operation. Maintenance and repair interruptions may disrupt production schedules, lowering overall productivity and potentially increasing operational costs. This may limit the adoption of slat conveyors which affect the slat conveyor industry growth.
Company Products
- Motion06 Flat Slat Conveyor- The Motion06 Strip Belt Merge makes luggage moving. It has the fundamental advantage of operational safety. The system continues to function flawlessly. When combined with a belt deflector, the merge can also be used to transfer luggage from various angles.
- Side-grip Conveyors- Side-grip conveyors are a type of conveyor in which products are gripped from the side and can be run up or down a slope, such as a 90° slope. One of the benefits of this type of conveyor is that the production flow continues without the need for stops or other transitions.
- Slat Band Conveyors- Slat band conveyors are commonly used for handling products that require direction changes. It is useful for moving goods around tight radius bends can be used for accumulation and is widely used in the food, bottling, and automotive spare parts industries, among others.
- Ryson Slat Conveyor- Ryson Slat conveyors can make sharp turns while also inclining or declining, reducing the number of ancillary conveyors, and allowing the product to be moved in a much smaller area than other types of conveyors. It can move and orient lines, potentially replacing several other conveyors with a single unit.
- Steel Slat Conveyors for Parts Handling- Jorgensen manufactures slat conveyors in all practical widths, lengths, and heights. It provides a continuous moving surface for clamping and fixturing to accommodate items. Slat Conveyors are known for having a long production life with minimal maintenance and repair.
