Wafer-level Manufacturing Equipment Market to grow at a CAGR of 8.73% during 2024-2028
The Wafer-level Manufacturing Equipment Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.73% during 2023 and 2028. During this period, the market is also expected to show a growth of USD 51.11 billion. In the semiconductor industry, the shift towards larger wafer sizes is a significant trend, with the industry moving from a 23mm diameter in 1960 to the current standard of 300mm. This transition has led to a substantial reduction in manufacturing costs, estimated at around 30%, due to the increased surface area on large wafers that enables the production of a higher number of chips. Memory manufacturers dominate the market for 300mm wafers, while some leading semiconductor companies are exploring the development of even larger 450mm wafers. Despite this, the requirements of integrated circuits can still be met with the use of 300mm, 200mm, 150mm, and 100mm wafers.
