The global semiconductor assembly equipment market size was valued at $3,599.8 million in 2020, and is projected to reach $8,162.3 million by 2030, registering a CAGR of 8.4% from 2021 to 2030. Semiconductor assembly is a challenging procedure that ensures the quality of a variety of semiconductor devices. Semiconductor assembly equipment is utilized for manufacturing of semiconductor part assembly, overall device testing, and wafer fabrication. The growing demand for electronics and gadget services has aided the growth of the semiconductor assembly equipment market significantly.
Semiconductors are crystalline or amorphous materials that under certain conditions, may conduct electricity, making them an ideal medium for current control. Semiconductors are materials with free electrons in their structure, which allow electricity to flow more freely between atoms. The most prevalent semiconductor material is silicon. Equipment for wafer fabrication is used in the early phases of the semiconductor manufacturing process, whereas testing and assembly equipment is utilized in the later stages.
IDM companies are continuously investing in R&D sector to develop technologically advanced, energy-efficient, and miniaturized products such as RFID circuits, ICs, low-power microcontrollers, and advanced sensors for various applications such as consumer electronics, automotive, and industrial applications. For instance, in 2019, Texas Instruments and Samsung, for example, spent $1.6 billion and $16.8 billion on R&D of technologically sophisticated and miniaturized goods, respectively.
The novel coronavirus has rapidly spread across various countries and regions, causing enormous impact on lives of people and overall community. Originating as a crisis to human health, it now poses significant threat to worldwide trade, economy, and finance. Due to the continuous lockdown in key global countries, the COVID-19 pandemic has halted assembly of many items in the semiconductor assembly equipment business. The players in semiconductor assembly equipment market can afford a complete lockdown only for a limited period, after which they would have to alter their investment plans. Furthermore, number of COVID-19 cases are expected to reduce in the near term as vaccine for COVID-19 has been introduced in the market. This is further expected to lead to re-initiation of semiconductor assembly equipment companies at their full-scale capacities, which would aid the market to recover by the start of 2022. After COVID-19 infection instances start to decline, equipment and machinery producers must focus on protecting their staff, operations, and supply networks in order to respond to urgent emergencies and establish new methods of working.
Various companies are improving their product portfolio by launching semiconductor assembly equipment with advanced technology to strengthen their position in semiconductor assembly equipment market. For instance, in May 2021, Applied Materials, Inc. launched Alx TM, which accelerate the manufacturing and assembly of latest technology chip. Furthermore, Applies Material and BE semiconductor Industries N.V have an agreement to develop proven equipment solution for die-based hybrid bonding with chip-to-chip connecting technology, which improve the performance design. Hence, these strategies implemented by the players are expected to fuel the semiconductor assembly equipment market growth during the forecast period.
