The market scale of semiconductor manufacturing equipment is expected to be five major trends.

Driven by the rapid growth of the demand for consumer electronic products, the continuous development of the concept of meta-universe and the increasing favor of electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles, the expansion of the electronics industry has created a huge profit space for the semiconductor manufacturing equipment market.

This can be attributed to the growing demand for a variety of semiconductor manufacturing tools for the production of memory IC, sensors, PMIC, microprocessors, SoC, etc.

The continued business expansion initiatives launched by major semiconductor companies have further consolidated the development of the industry.
Intel, for example, began building two new factories in the United States in 2021, which means that Intel needs a lot of semiconductor equipment to achieve advanced chip manufacturing technology.

According to Global Market Insights, Inc.
According to a recent report, the following five trends will increase the market size of semiconductor manufacturing equipment to more than $90 billion in 2027.

Major companies in the industry are focused on developing innovative semiconductor manufacturing equipment to effectively meet the needs of consumers and gain a competitive advantage in the market.
For example, in 2020, Advantest launched two general-purpose hardware devices, digital and power modules, to support the capabilities of the T2000 test platform.
They are designed for mass production of SoC chips, power management IC, CMOS image sensors and automotive sensors.
Improve the adoption rate of polishing and grinding equipment.
Polishing and grinding processes are mainly used in the manufacture of MEMS sensors, integrated circuits (IC), chip modules, optical devices and compound semiconductors.
The growing preference of electronic products for miniaturized IC requires frequent polishing and grinding to reduce surface damage and maintain wafer flexibility.
The growing demand for the process encourages market participants to focus on new product development, which has a positive impact on business growth.
For example, in 2020, ACM Research, Inc.
Ultra-stress-free polishing tools for advanced semiconductor packaging and wafer processing are introduced.
It is reported that the compound annual growth rate of polishing and grinding equipment is expected to exceed 5.0% by 2027.
The popularity of 2D technology.
The growing popularity of two-dimensional technology can be attributed to its advantages, such as robust structure, lower power consumption and lowest operating costs.
It is widely used in the manufacture of two-dimensional planar storage devices.
Various companies and research institutions are forming strategic alliances to develop IC based on 2D materials.
For example, in 2021, TSMC worked with the Taiwan Research Institute of China and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to develop 1nm chips using two-dimensional materials.
With the increase in adoption rate, the compound annual growth rate of 2D technology segment is expected to reach 6.0% by 2027.

The growing demand for power electronics and high-performance computing equipment has prompted contract suppliers to improve their IC manufacturing through new technology nodes.
Many companies tend to make technological improvements, such as using laser plasma as a light source in extreme ultraviolet printing equipment to produce high-quality wavelengths.

For example, in 2021, Micron announced plans to deploy extreme Ultraviolet equipment in its manufacturing contract plant.
Taking these factors into account, the process department of the contract manufacturing supply chain accounted for more than 25% of the share in 2020 and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of more than 6.0% by 2027.
Developing semiconductor-based projects in Europe.

A growing number of government initiatives and investments in European semiconductor projects are driving the expansion of the region's semiconductor manufacturing equipment industry.

In 2021, for example, the European Union announced plans to increase chip capacity by 20% by 2030.

The EU also announced an investment of US $160 billion in technology development involving semiconductor manufacturing and supply chain infrastructure.
In addition, regional chipmakers are working with different industry experts, which in turn contributes to industrial growth.
According to the report, the industry is expected to grow at a compound annual rate of 4.5% by 2027.

In short, with the increase in investment in chip manufacturing facilities and the emergence of technologically advanced solutions, the semiconductor manufacturing equipment market is becoming attractive.
