Market Overview:
The global wafer aligner market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The market growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for semiconductor and optoelectronic devices, miniaturization of electronic devices, and technological advancements in the wafer alignment technology. Based on type, the global wafer aligner market is segmented into flat aligners, notch aligners, and other types.
Product Definition:
A wafer aligner is a piece of semiconductor manufacturing equipment used to place semiconductor wafers in precise positions with respect to one another.
Flat Aligners:
Flat aligners are used to realign the wafers in a semiconductor device. They are also known as pancake stacker, since they have low weight and can be easily transported. The flat aligners market is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to its increasing usage in foundry markets including 3D printing, MEMS fabrication and automotive electronics manufacturing.
Notch Aligners:
The global notch aligners market size was valued at USD 8.0 million in 2016 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of XX% over the forecast period. The increasing demand for advanced wafer fabrication techniques is one of the key factors driving the growth of this industry as it helps in reducing process variations, improving yield, and enhancing device performance by minimizing misalignment problems during manufacturing processes such as lithography & deposition procedures.
Application Insights:
The global wafer aligner market has been segmented into seven applications, namely silicon, glass, gallium arsenide (GaAs), sapphire, other materials including aluminum nitride and titanium nitride, and unclassified applications. The silicon application segment dominated the overall market in terms of revenue share in 2017. This is attributed to the rising demand for integrated circuits from various end-use industries such as consumer electronics & telecommunication devices (ETDs), automotive & transportation systems and medical equipment. Furthermore, technological advancements coupled with increasing production volumes are expected to drive the demand further over the forecast period.
The glass application segment is anticipated to witness a significant growth rate over the forecast period owing to its growing use in flat panel displays and optical fiber telecommunications among others.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in 2017. The growth of the region can be attributed to increasing investments in R&D and technological advancements. Moreover, growing demand for advanced semiconductor devices is expected to drive the regional market over the forecast period. Asia Pacific is projected to witness significant growth over the next eight years owing to rapid industrialization and economic development coupled with rising demand for electronics products in China, India, South Korea, Japan, and Taiwan (CIT). Furthermore, favorable government policies aimed at promoting domestic manufacturing are anticipated to boost industry expansion over this period.
The presence of major players such as GALILEO Semiconductor GmbH; Maxim Integrated Products Inc.; Renesas Electronics Corporation; Texas Instruments Inc.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for semiconductor devices: The global semiconductor market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% from 2016 to 2020, reaching a value of USD 333.8 billion by 2020. This growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for semiconductor devices across various applications such as consumer electronics, automotive, industrial and medical sectors.
- Rising demand for miniaturized and advanced electronic devices: With the advent of new technologies such as 3D printing and Internet of Things (IoT), there is an increasing demand for miniaturized and advanced electronic devices. This is driving the need for smaller, faster and more energy-efficient semiconductors, which in turn is fueling the growth of the wafer aligner market.
- Growing number of fabless companies: A fabless company refers to a company that outsources all or most manufacturing operations to contract manufacturers (CM). The number of fabless companies has been growing rapidly in recent years due to advancements in technology that have made it easier and cheaper to design chips without having physical access to fabrication facilities (foundries). This is contributing significantly towards the growth of the wafer aligner market as these companies are increasingly adopting wafer alignment solutions for their production needs .
