AGVS Industry Statistical Data
The Automatic Guided Vehicle Systems Product Section strives to educate and promote the industry.
One of the methods the industry utilizes to achieve this goal is through the collection of systems
installation statistics and trends. The collection of this data is a prerequisite and a continuing
condition of AGVS Product Section membership.
These statistical trends are compiled from information collected from
current MHIA AGVS Product Section Member Companies in good standing.
Even though this data does not reflect the total market size, it does reflect the majority of new
installations and indicates the breadth of the applications benefiting from the technology. It also
indicates that a company does not have to be big to benefit! Small, simple systems can deliver just
as much return as the larger more highly integrated systems, too.
