ORDER AND CASE PICKING MACHINES MARKET OVERVIEW

The order and case picking machines market, valued at approximately USD 4.61 billion in 2024, is forecasted to grow consistently, reaching USD 5 billion in 2025 and ultimately hitting USD 9.52 billion by 2033, at a steady CAGR of 8.4% from 2025 to 2033.

Order and case picking machines are automated systems designed to assist in the process of selecting products from a warehouse or distribution center for shipment to customers or retail stores. These machines are often used in the retail and e-commerce industries to streamline the order fulfillment process and reduce the need for manual labor. An order picking machine typically consists of a robotic arm or conveyor system that retrieves items from shelves or bins in a warehouse. The system is programmed with the order information, and it will select the necessary items and place them in a designated location for packaging and shipping.

Case picking machines, on the other hand, are designed to retrieve entire cases of products rather than individual items. These machines are commonly used in industries such as grocery and retail, where products are often shipped in cases rather than as individual items. The machines use a combination of conveyor systems, robotic arms, and automated storage and retrieval systems to retrieve and transport entire cases of products to the packaging and shipping area.

COVID-19 IMPACT
