SEMI announced in its recent report that 2022 global sales of total semiconductor manufacturing equipment are forecast to reach a record $117.5 billion, rising 14.7% from the previous industry, and increase to $120.8 billion in 2023.
Regionally, Taiwan, the Chinese Mainland, and Korea are projected to remain the top three equipment buyers in 2022, among which Taiwan will gain the top position in 2022 and 2023.
According to SEMI, the wafer fab equipment segment, including wafer processing, fab facilities, and mask/reticle equipment, is projected to expand 15.4% to a new industry record of $101 billion in 2022. In 2023, the sales are expected to continue increasing by 3.2%, reaching $104.3 billion.
SEMI said in line with the semiconductor industry’s push from huge investments in digital facilities to increase and upgrade capacity, the wafer fab equipment segment could reach the $100 billion milestones for the first time in 2022.
Driven by demand for leading-edge and mature process nodes, the foundry and logic segments are expected to increase 20.6% year over year to $55.2 billion in 2022 and another 7.9%, to $59.5 billion, in 2023.
In terms of memory and storage, the DRAM equipment segment is expected to grow by 8% to $17.1 billion in 2022, while a decline of 7.7% is forecast in 2023; The NAND equipment market is projected to grow 6.8% to $21.1 billion this year, followed by a 2.4% decrease in 2023.
SEMI also estimated the packaging equipment segment is expected to grow 8.2% to $7.8 billion in 2022 and down 0.5% to $7.7 billion in 2023. The test equipment segment is forecast to grow 12.2% to $8.8 billion in 2022 and continue to increase by 0.4% in 2023 on demand for high-performance computing applications.
