Global Semiconductor Inspection Equipment Market Insights, Forecast to 2025

Semiconductor inspection equipment refers to the machines and systems used for the inspection of products during the process of semiconductor production to find out defects; the equipment is also used for R&D purposes.
The market of semiconductor inspection equipment is affected by the semiconductor market development situation. Over the past decades, there has been an increasing demand for the application of semiconductor ICs in segments such as consumer electronics, automobiles, and industrial sector that is prompting the vendors to raise its production, which will increase the demand for semiconductor inspection equipment.
The semiconductor inspection equipment market is quite concentrated, with the top three vendors KLA-Tencor, Hitachi High-Technologies and Applied Materials dominate more than 60% of the industry total revenue. But the market competition is also quite fierce, as there are more than ten smaller enterprises competing in the market.
Wafer inspection is the largest application of semiconductor inspection equipment, which holds more than 70% of the industry total value. Package and chip inspection are also important application of semiconductor inspection equipment.
Although sales of semiconductor inspection equipment may bring a lot of opportunities; for the new entrants with only advantage in capital but without sufficient support in technology and downstream channels, the research group did not recommend taking risk to enter this market.
The Semiconductor Inspection Equipment market was valued at 3360 Million US$ in 2018 and is projected to reach 6140 Million US$ by 2025, at a CAGR of 7.9% during the forecast period.
