North America Semiconductor Etch Equipment Market Analysis

The North America Semiconductor Etch Equipment Market is expected to register a CAGR of 4.04% during the forecast period.

  • The growth of the semiconductor Etch Equipment market in North America is dependent on the expansion of the semiconductor wafer deposition and wafer processing sectors. Memory makers and foundries are increasingly focusing on investing in newer and creative equipment due to rising chip design costs, new materials, smaller linewidths on a chip, and the necessity for integrated manufacturing processes. For instance, in February 2022, Texas Instruments detailed its plan to invest billions in U.S. semiconductor chip production through 2030. Texas Instruments revealed plans to invest USD 3.5 billion annually in its U.S. semiconductor chip manufacturing through 2025 as manufacturers face a global shortage of the tech necessary for an increasing number of goods.
  • In March 2021, Intel committed to two more new fabrication plants, or fabs, in Arizona. The news comes during a global chip shortage that is snarling industries from automobiles to electronics and worries the United States is falling behind in semiconductor manufacturing. The foundry is poised to manufacture a range of chips based on ARM technology used in mobile devices and has historically competed with Intel's favored x86 technology.
  • Industrial automation and the usage of sensors in automotive are increasing the applications of semiconductors and their demand in almost all the industry verticals. Because of this, the Semiconductor Etch Equipment market is rising indirectly. For instance, The University of Northern Iowa (UNI), Youngstown State University (YSU), and the National Center for Defense Manufacturing and Machining (NCDMM) have formed new cooperation that aims to leverage $10 million in first-year financing. Hundreds of businesses are expected to benefit from the partnership each year by removing barriers to adopting Industry 4.0 technologies, such as additive manufacturing, artificial intelligence (AI), and robotics, to increase the output of high-quality parts while expanding and strengthening the supply chain.
  • The semiconductor Etch Equipment market industry is growing as smartphone applications and other consumer items become more popular. To achieve a competitive advantage, firms increase their investment in process equipment. For example, Intel will invest more than USD 20 billion in two new chip plants in Ohio. This investment will significantly increase semiconductor manufacturing capabilities in the United States, a critical component of computers, smartphones, automobiles, and other electronic devices. With the increase of the semiconductor market, the semiconductor Etch Equipment market will also increase.
  • The semiconductor Etch Equipment industry requires a large amount of cash, and government support has played an essential role in its development. While market-based government support may promote innovation and technological diffusion, non-transparent and discriminatory subsidies can stifle competition and generate market distortions. Fears about skewed government schemes for semiconductor etch equipment makers are constraining market expansion since manufacturers are unwilling to invest in developing high-quality products.
  • COVID-19 has negatively impacted the market by disrupting the semiconductor industry's supply chain and production. Due to workforce shortages, the impact on semiconductor etches equipment makers were more severe. Several players in the semiconductor supply chain worldwide had to limit or even cease their operations during the pandemic. The sector was plagued by a high deficit and rising demand, resulting in a considerable supply chain gap.

North America Semiconductor Etch Equipment Industry Overview

The North America Semiconductor Etch Equipment Market is competitive, and few key players contribute to the significant market share. For new entrants, it is difficult to enter this market due to the significant capital required, and significant businesses are pursuing mergers and acquisitions to expand their market dominance.

  • In September 2021, Applied Materials, Inc. announced new solutions to help the world's leading silicon carbide (Sic) chipmakers shift from 150mm to 200mm wafer production, which nearly doubles die output per wafer, to help meet the world's growing demand for premium electric vehicle powertrains.
  • In Feb 2022, Lam Research Corp announced a new suite of selective etch products that apply breakthrough wafer fabrication techniques and novel chemistries to support chipmakers in developing gate-all-around (GAA) transistor structures. The company's three products, such as Argos®, Prevos™, and Selis® etch portfolio, provide a powerful advantage in designing and manufacturing advanced logic and memory semiconductor solutions.
  • In Feb 2022, Panasonic Corporation commercialized a double-sided full wiring transparent conductive film combining low resistance and high transmissivity, using its unique roll-to-roll construction method for the first time. Panasonic's original roll-to-roll fabrication approach allowed for a wiring width of 2 m, which was impossible to achieve with traditional etching procedures.

North America Semiconductor Etch Equipment Market News

  • In November 2021, PSK was selected as the world's 'leader' in the strip equipment field in the analysis data of the 'U.S. semiconductor supply chain report' announced by the SEMI. The company has planned to release one of the etching equipment, called 'Bevel Etcher (Slope Etching Equipment).
  • In May 2022, the US government has planned to increase its domestic capacity for high-purity minerals, gases, and chemicals, or else American semiconductor capacity and national security will remain highly dependent on foreign factors outside of its control because the world-leading node logic chips require these base materials to be manufactured.
