The automated overhead cranes market is expected to grow from US$ 1,854.10 million in 2021 to US$ 2,928.59 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 6.7% from 2021 to 2028.
The constant growth in e-commerce, 3PL, fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG), fast-moving consumer durable (FMCD), retail, and manufacturing industries is supporting the rising number of organized warehousing spaces. The e-commerce and 3PL market players are among the major adopters of organized warehousing spaces. For instance, the growing Indian e-commerce industry is propelling the number of warehouses and distribution centers across the country. The e-retailers are now looking forward to opening warehouses in tier I and tier II cities. Thus, the demand for automated overhead cranes is expected to increase across warehouses and distribution centers for lifting heavy equipment and material handling. Furthermore, the manufacturers of overhead cranes are focusing on designing technically advanced lifting equipment for developing smarter factories in high-end manufacturing industries.
Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Automated Overhead Cranes Market
The COVID-19 outbreak has affected the world severely and its impact is still being felt in several countries across the globe. Until the outbreak of COVID-19, the crane industry was witnessing considerable growth in many regions; however, the pandemic led to notable decline in the adoption of automated overhead cranes, including bridge cranes, gantry cranes, monorail cranes, and jib cranes. Owing to the containment measures such as business shutdown, lockdowns, and travel restrictions, the production and supply chain of automated overhead cranes was adversely impacted. As many countries strictly implemented containment measures to control the surging number of COVID-19 cases, the trading activities were majorly affected, which further impacted the manufacturing of automated overhead cranes from the supply side till 2020. However, over the last quarter of 2020, many trade operations have started picking pace and the market players have begun experiencing some growth in the demand for automated overhead cranes market.

A bridge automated crane consists of two overhead runways attached with the support structure present in the crane. A bridge comprises a single or double girder configuration that moves the crane up and down the runways, and the hoist and the trolley run side-to-side along the bridge. Bridge automated overhead cranes enhance the workflow in the facility, reduce the chances of product damage, efficiently handle and control the load while moving, and improve the health and safety issues in the facility. With the implementation of automated overhead cranes, the facilities are going green with zero emissions and longer life with lower operating costs, less lifting accidents. Moreover, these cranes can be custom engineered to meet the specific application and work area.
