Growing demand for third-party IC packaging to support OSAT vendor expansion

The outsourced semiconductor assembly and test (OSAT) supply chain process sector is predicted to develop during the forecast period, owing to the use of assembly, packaging, and testing services by consumer electronics and automotive manufacturers.

OSAT enterprises are looking for automated machinery and technology to integrate into their manufacturing facilities, allowing clients to outsource semiconductor and electronic devices. The increased requirement to maximize semiconductor fab time and capacity is encouraging OSAT participation to assure a speedier and consistent supply of semiconductors.

Challenges faced by the Market

The high cost of equipment is one of the major challenges that the semiconductor manufacturing equipment sector faces. Manufacturing semiconductor manufacturing equipment is a sophisticated and capital-intensive process that necessitates substantial investment in research and development. As a result, the cost of equipment is considerable, making it difficult for small and medium-sized businesses to enter the market.

Furthermore, the semiconductor manufacturing equipment industry is very competitive, with multiple manufacturers selling identical goods. This has resulted in increased rivalry, which has resulted in a drop in prices and margins. Yet, the industry is still controlled by a few major businesses with the ability to spend in R&D and create novel goods.
