Mechanical demining is used to eliminate land mines with efficient use of mechanical devices. Humanitarian as well as military are the demining activities and are performed across the globe. The Demining action can also be categorized on the basis of operation type into two basic types which are manual demining and mechanical demining. Manual Demining or the conventional demining is a process in which the demining action i.e. the clearing the land mines are done with humans and with the help of animals (dogs, rats) for the detection of the land mines. In mechanical demining, special mechanical devices are used and are faster and safer than manual demining. Different types of devices are used in mechanical demining such as mechanical mine clearance system/vehicle (MMCS), mine-protected vehicles, and ground protection machines. These factors are expected to drive the market growth during the forecast period.
The Mechanical Mine Clearance System Market was valued for US$ 45.75 Mn in 2021.
Market Dynamics
Rising demand for demining action is the major factor expected to drive growth of the global mechanical mine clearance system market over the forecast period. Demining action has become extremely essential due to the presence of live mines across the globe. According to the ‘Landmine Free’, every year, over 5000 people are killed or injured due to landmine accidents and explosive remnants of war (ERW) shells scattered across the globe’s former and current war zones. Since there have been recorded 1 million people killed or maimed due to active landmines, there is a huge demand for demining activities. It is estimated that over 60 to 80 million landmines are still in active positions worldwide and are hazardous for the local community. Hence, these factors are expected to drive growth of the market during the forecast period.
Furthermore, multi-functional characteristics of MMCS is also expected to drive the global mechanical mine clearance system market growth over the forecast period. Mechanical mine clearance system can be used on any type of terrain since, particularly where manual demining is not possible. The effective interchangeability between the mountings, i.e. the mine flail or mine tiller or mine plough as per the requirements of the current operation and the demining action. This allows user to perform tasks with a single mine clearance machine instead of deploying different machines for different tasks. Thus, these factors are expected to support growth of the global mechanical mine clearance system market during the forecast period.
