SMT Equipment Market Size and Forecast (2021 - 2031), Global and Regional Share, Trend, and Growth Opportunity Analysis Report Coverage: By Component (Passive Component and Active Component), Equipment Type (Inspection Equipment, Placement Equipment, Soldering Equipment, Screen Printing Equipment, Cleaning Equipment, and Others), End User (Consumer Electronics, Telecommunication, Aerospace and Defense, Automotive, Industrial, and Others), and Geography
The SMT Equipment market size was valued at US$ 6.38 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach US$ 10.19 billion by 2031; it is estimated to record a CAGR of 6.0% from 2023 to 2031.
The SMT Equipment market is segmented into five major regions—North America, Europe, Asia Pacific (APAC), the Middle East & Africa (MEA), and South & Central America. Asia Pacific dominated the market in 2023, followed by North America and Europe, respectively.
Future electronic device development is expected to be strongly influenced by through-silicon-via technology, a type of vertical interconnect access (VIA) connection used in IC packaging to provide vertical electrical connections between silicon wafers or dies. TSV technology establishes electrical contact with surface-mounted devices while mirrored sidewalls enhance package reflectivity and improve light efficiency.
The Asia Pacific SMT equipment market is segmented into Australia, China, India, Japan, South Korea, and the Rest of Asia Pacific. The SMT equipment market in Asia is expected to grow significantly, driven by the rising demand for printed circuit board assemblies (PCBA) in various industries, including automotive, consumer electronics, and aerospace. Various global players are expanding in Asia Pacific to provide SMT equipment to meet the demands of these growing industries and provide cutting-edge technology, solutions, and experience. For example, in April 2024, Essemtec AG expanded its network of demo centers in Asia to meet the growing demand for SMT equipment. Essemtec and its partners operate six demo centers in Asia, with a seventh center slated to open in Q3 2024. The establishment of these demo centers is part of Essemtec's strategic collaboration with its partners, a partnership designed to amplify Essemtec's reach and deliver advanced solutions to a wider customer base. The current demo centers are in Lumpur, Bangkok, Pune, Shenzhen, and Shanghai (2 centers).
Based on component, the market is divided into passive component and active component. Passive component held considerable SMT equipment market share 2023. A resistor is an electrical device that resists the flow of electric current. SMT resistors typically have resistance values ranging from 1 ohm to several megaohms. SMT resistors are classified into several types, and each SMT type is used for a specific application. For example, highly precise and stable thin-film resistors are ideal for use in precision applications such as instrumentation. They are commonly available in resistance values ranging from 1 ohm to 3 megaohms, with tolerance levels as low as 0.01%. Thick film resistors are commonly used as less-expensive resistors where precision is not required.
Hitachi High-Tech Corp, Juki Corporation, ASMPT Ltd, Yamaha Motor Co Ltd, Nordson Corp, KLA Corp, Viscom AG, Fuji Corporation, Saki Corporation, and Mycronic are among the key SMT Equipment market players that are profiled in this market study.
