The equipment market is expected to contract 4.0 percent in 2019 but grow 20.7 percent to reach $71.9 billion, an all-time high.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:5.25pt; margin-right:0in; margin-bottom:9.0pt; margin-left:0in\"><span style=\"background:white\"><span style=\"line-height:15.0pt\"><span style=\"box-sizing:border-box\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,sans-serif\"><span style=\"color:#333333\">The SEMI Year-end Forecast predicts wafer processing equipment will rise 10.2 percent in 2018 to $50.2 billion. The other front-end segment \u2013 consisting of fab facilities equipment, wafer manufacturing, and mask\/reticle equipment \u2013 is expected to increase 0.9 percent to $2.5 billion this year. The assembly and packaging equipment segment is projected to grow 1.9 percent to $4.0 billion in 2018, while semiconductor test equipment is forecast to increase 15.6 percent to $5.4 billion this year.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:5.25pt; margin-right:0in; margin-bottom:9.0pt; margin-left:0in\"><span style=\"background:white\"><span style=\"line-height:15.0pt\"><span style=\"box-sizing:border-box\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,sans-serif\"><span style=\"color:#333333\">In 2018, South Korea will remain the largest equipment market for the second year in a row. China will rise in the rankings to claim the second spot for the first time, dislodging Taiwan, which will fall to the third position. All regions tracked except Taiwan, North America, and Korea will experience growth. China will lead in growth with 55.7 percent, followed by Japan at 32.5 percent, Rest of World (primarily Southeast Asia) at 23.7 percent, and Europe at 14.2 percent.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:5.25pt; margin-right:0in; margin-bottom:9.0pt; margin-left:0in\"><span style=\"background:white\"><span style=\"line-height:15.0pt\"><span style=\"box-sizing:border-box\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,sans-serif\"><span style=\"color:#333333\">For 2019, SEMI forecasts that South Korea, China, and Taiwan will remain the top three markets, with all three regions maintaining their relative rankings. Equipment sales in South Korea is forecast to reach $13.2 billion, in China $12.5 billion, and in Taiwan $11.81 billion. Japan, Taiwan and North America are the only regions expected to experience growth next year. The growth picture is much more optimistic in 2020, with all regional markets expected to increase in 2020, with the market increasing the most in Korea, followed by China, and Rest of World.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\"><span style=\"line-height:normal\"><span style=\"box-sizing:border-box\"><span style=\"font-size:12.0pt\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.semi.org\">www.semi.org<\/a> <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SEMI, Washington, reports that worldwide sales of new semiconductor manufacturing equipment are projected to increase 9.7 percent to $62.1 billion in 2018, exceeding the historic high of $56.6 billion set last year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":63082,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[434,435,436,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3894","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-electronics","category-news","category-news-articles","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 -
