Global mining equipment industry overview
Mining companies move mined ores from mines to processing units with the help of mining equipment such as draglines, excavators and transport trucks. These machines must operate with limited downtime to ensure seamless operations and reduce the operating expenditure. This compels them to adopt advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and automation to improve their operational efficiency. For instance, Rio Tinto uses driverless trucks developed by Komatsu, which uses accurate global positioning systems (GPS) and radar and laser sensors to maneuver obstacles. Rio Tinto estimated that over 15% cost savings can be realized by using driverless trucks rather than human-operated trucks for mining operations. The growing dependence on the automation and AI in mining is one of the critical reasons that will drive the mining equipment market’s growth.
The need for metals and minerals is increasing with the growing adoption of clean energy products such as EVs because the batteries used in these vehicles are produced from metal and minerals. The growing need for metals and minerals such as iron, lead, nickel, cobalt, silver, palladium, aluminum, gold and manganese results in an increased demand for mining activity. This will drive the mining equipment market to grow at a CAGR of over 7% during the forecast period. To manufacture batteries for clean energy products, many mining companies are increasing their investments to mine metal and minerals.
