Semiconductor assembly and packaging equipment consists of the tools and machinery utilized to assemble and package semiconductor devices, ensuring their functionality and protection. This process includes attaching semiconductor chips to substrates, connecting them with wires, and encasing them in protective materials for use in electronic devices.
The primary types of semiconductor assembly and packaging equipment include plating equipment, inspection and dicing equipment, wire bonding equipment, and die-bonding equipment. Wire bonding equipment specifically pertains to the process of connecting two pieces of equipment using a wire, a crucial step for hazard prevention. These equipment find diverse applications in consumer electronics, healthcare devices, automotive, enterprise storage, and various other sectors. The key end-users encompass OSATs (Outsourced Semiconductor Assembly and Test) and IDMs (Integrated Device Manufacturers).
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
Tariffs have impacted the semiconductor assembly and packaging equipment market by increasing costs of imported precision components, automation systems, and advanced tooling used in backend semiconductor processes. Wire bonding, die bonding, and inspection equipment segments are most affected, particularly in asia pacific and north america where cross border equipment trade is significant. Higher equipment costs have influenced capital expenditure planning for OSATs and IDMs. At the same time, tariffs are encouraging regional manufacturing investments, localized equipment sourcing, and capacity expansion within domestic semiconductor ecosystems.

This semiconductor assembly and packaging equipment market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The semiconductor assembly and packaging equipment market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $13.15 billion in 2025 to $14.24 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.3%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth in consumer electronics demand, expansion of global semiconductor manufacturing, increasing chip miniaturization, rising investments in backend semiconductor processes, growth of outsourced assembly services.
The semiconductor assembly and packaging equipment market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $20.19 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.1%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to AI accelerator chip demand growth, electric vehicle semiconductor adoption, expansion of advanced node packaging, rising demand for high performance computing, increased semiconductor manufacturing localization. Major trends in the forecast period include rising adoption of advanced packaging technologies, growing demand for high throughput assembly equipment, increased focus on miniaturized and high density packaging, expansion of automated inspection and testing, higher emphasis on yield enhancement processes.
Rising demand for consumer electronics is expected to support the expansion of the semiconductor assembly and packaging equipment market. Consumer electronics is a major segment that relies heavily on the semiconductor industry. For example, in May 2023, the Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association, a Japan-based trade association, reported that consumer electronics production reached $204.67 million (¥32,099 million), reflecting a 127% increase compared to the previous year. Therefore, the continued growth of consumer electronics is likely to increase the demand for semiconductor assembly and packaging equipment.
Major companies in the semiconductor assembly and packaging equipment market are advancing new technologies such as semiconductor package substrates to broaden their customer base, increase sales, and drive revenue. A semiconductor package substrate is a crucial component in the assembly of semiconductor devices, including integrated circuits (ICs), microprocessors, and other electronic components. For instance, in February 2023, LG Innotek Co. Ltd., a South Korea-based electronic components manufacturer, introduced the 2Metal Chip on Film (COF). COF, or Chip-on-Film, is an advanced semiconductor package substrate that connects displays to flexible printed circuit boards (PCBs). Its primary role is to help reduce bezels on TVs, notebook PCs, monitors, and smartphones while also supporting smaller module sizes. This innovation works by creating extremely small perforations, known as micro-via holes, on a thin film and embedding ultra-miniaturized circuits on both sides. This enables faster signal transmission between electronic components and supports the development of ultra-high-definition displays.
In April 2025, Applied Materials, Inc., a US-based semiconductor manufacturing company, acquired a 9% stake in BE Semiconductor Industries N.V. (BESI) for an undisclosed amount. Through this acquisition, Applied Materials seeks to strengthen its advanced packaging technology portfolio by collaborating with BESI to co-develop and deliver a fully integrated hybrid bonding solution. This move positions the company to better meet rising demand for high-performance logic and memory chips. BE Semiconductor Industries N.V. (BESI) is a Netherlands-based provider of semiconductor assembly and packaging equipment.
