Semiconductor Capital Equipment Market: Key Drivers, Trends, and Challenges

Based on our research output, there has been a negative impact on the market growth during and post COVID-19 era. The rising number of fabs is notably driving the semiconductor capital equipment market growth, although factors such as a shortage of skilled and trained personnel may impede the market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the semiconductor capital equipment industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.

Key Semiconductor Capital Equipment Market Driver

One of the key factors driving market growth in the semiconductor capital equipment market is the rising number of fabs. Semiconductor fabs are fabrication plants that manufacture a range of semiconductor devices and components. ICs are either designed in-house by firms called IDMs or manufactured by foundries as per designs provided by clients. The demand for semiconductor components is increasing with the rise in the number of applications of various emerging technologies, such as IoT and AI. As a result, there is an increasing need for silicon wafers to manufacture semiconductor components. This will require the construction of more fabs. Many companies are also building new fabs because of the highly competitive semiconductor market. The race toward introducing a new technology before competitors have driven the construction of new fabs. With the increasing demand for ICs for various emerging applications, such as autonomous cars and robotics, there will be a need for semiconductor capital equipment.

Key Semiconductor Capital Equipment Market Trend

The advances in wafer size are a semiconductor capital equipment market trend that is expected to have a positive impact in the coming years. The semiconductor industry has seen drastic changes in wafer sizes over almost five decades. The industry has migrated to larger diameter wafers to cut costs by almost 20%-25%. Currently, the industry is widely using 300-mm wafers for manufacturing ICs. This trend is expected to continue during the forecast period, with companies investing substantial amounts in the construction and upgrade of such fabs. For instance, SK Hynix is building an M14 fab for 300-mm technology in South Korea. However, the market will continue to witness a demand for 200-mm wafers during the forecast period. Currently, semiconductor component manufacturers are planning to develop the 450-mm wafer technology, and its pilot production is expected to start during 2019-2020. The changes in wafer sizes will create the need for assembly and packaging equipment in the semiconductor industry.

Key Semiconductor Capital Equipment Market Challenge

The shortage of skilled and trained personnel will be a major challenge impeding the semiconductor capital equipment market during the forecast period. The lack of skilled and trained personnel is a major issue faced by the semiconductor manufacturing sector. There has been a loss in embedded knowledge due to the retirement of baby boomers. This has created a gap in the number of experienced people available. The widening of this gap is mainly because of the retirement of baby boomers and the growing global economic expansion. Moreover, the younger generation has an inclination toward the service industry rather than the manufacturing industry. Employees in the semiconductor manufacturing sector lack knowledge and skills in manufacturing and operating complex machines. They lack the basic skills and knowledge in the fields of engineering, mathematics, science, and technology due to the gradual decline of technical education programs in schools. This has significantly impacted the manufacturing sector and will likely hinder the growth of the semiconductor market to a certain extent. It will also affect the sales of semiconductor capital equipment, such as assembly equipment and wafer-level assembly equipment.
