In the past decade, China's handling equipment industry has achieved a comprehensive transition from traditional human driven to intelligent, electrified, and globalized. The market size has rapidly grown from 260.7 billion yuan in 2020 to an expected 492.4 billion yuan in 2025, with an average annual compound growth rate of over 12%. The core driving force comes from the expansion of e-commerce logistics and the promotion of the 'Made in China 2025' policy. The electrification transformation is accelerating, and the sales proportion of new energy forklifts surpassed that of internal combustion forklifts for the first time in 2020. In 2023, the penetration rate of lithium-ion forklifts exceeded 42%, and the total lifecycle cost is reduced by 40% compared to lead-acid models. The penetration rate of AGV/AMR continues to rise, and the market size of industrial mobile robots will exceed 13.7 billion yuan in 2024. The navigation accuracy of unmanned forklifts can reach ± 5mm, and they are widely used in 'black light factories' and intelligent warehousing. The substitution effect of domestic production is significant, with breakthroughs in integrated molding technology for core components such as S-shaped steel, a significant decrease in import dependence, and an enhanced ability to independently control the industrial chain. The export competitiveness continues to improve. In 2024, the industry's export value reached 32.953 billion US dollars, a year-on-year increase of 15.25%, while the import value decreased by 13.53%, achieving a surplus of 30.153 billion US dollars. Industrial robots have become a net exporter, and their products are exported to high-end markets in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Europe and America. The integration of technology with the Internet of Things, 5G, and AI is driving the evolution of devices from single handling tools to intelligent collaboration platforms, and the industry is accelerating towards a new stage of 'high added value+green and low-carbon+global services'.
