Market Share by Operation

Automatic conveyor systems, by operation, are anticipated to witness a rapidly growing Latin America conveyors market share in the coming years as more industries invest in upgrading conveyor systems for streamlined operations. Through the use of automatic conveyor systems, requirement for manual intervention can be minimised and products can be directly moved as needed. The reduced need for manual labour results in lower operating costs, faster performance, and minimal errors, thereby improving the overall efficiency of operations. Productivity can be enhanced and various additional systems can be integrated with automatic conveyors to suit the needs of the specific application. The versatility of these systems enable smooth integration with a wide range of processes and products, due to which their demand is projected to increase in the forecast period.

Market Share by End Use

Mining accounts for significant share of the conveyors market in Latin America, driven by the thriving mining industry due to presence of rich natural resources and support of governments in the region. In large scale mining reserves, sturdy conveyor systems are used to transport ore from underground mining locations to the surface for further processing. Depending upon the location of reserves, weight of material to be transported, and distance, custom conveyor systems are deployed and play an integral role in efficient mining operations. Outside of the mining locations, conveyor systems are also utilised in processing plants and refining, for the movement of ore throughout the supply chain. Increasing demand for mining and investments towards improving production are likely to bolster the Latin America conveyors market growth further.
