Asia Pacific Semiconductor Metrology and Inspection Market

The APAC semiconductor metrology and inspection market is expected to grow from US$ 2,559.95 million in 2022 to US$ 3,942.04 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 6.4% from 2022 to 2028.

APAC is one of the most important regions for the semiconductor industry in terms of manufacturing and utilization. According to Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA), APAC is the largest regional semiconductor market, with China being the largest single-country market. Many companies are forming alliances and partnerships in the semiconductor metrology/inspection equipment industry. For example, Shenzhen JT Automation Equipment, a Chinese chip fabrication tool manufacturer, established a legally binding five-year memorandum of agreement with Huawei's HiSilicon Technologies Company in July 2021. Both companies want to grow their semiconductor packaging tool development relationship and make the sector self-sufficient and regulated. Thus, the partnership will increase the use of semiconductors in packaging technology. Many market players in APAC are launching innovative products in the market. For instance, Hitachi High-Tech Corporation introduced the SEM*1 CR7300 high-speed defect inspection in November 2020. The CR7300 is a new review SEM type that will help enhance semiconductor device manufacturing productivity. It is based on electron optics, which allows for the best high-resolution picture acquisition. Simultaneously, new imaging and stage technologies allow for high-speed image acquisition in half the time of traditional methods, resulting in a considerable reduction in total inspection time. The above-mentioned technological innovations are expected to create opportunities for semiconductor metrology and inspection market players in APAC during the forecast period.

With the new features and technologies, vendors can attract new customers and expand their footprints in emerging markets. This factor is likely to drive the APAC semiconductor metrology and inspection market. The APAC semiconductor metrology and inspection market is expected to grow at a good CAGR during the forecast period.
