Semiconductor Manufacturing Equipment Market Welcomes Wave of Growth, DOHONE Drives Chip Manufacturing Industry Upgrade
2025-11-21
Driven by the accelerated global digital transformation and the iteration of emerging technologies, the semiconductor industry is entering a new golden period of development. The manufacturing equipment market, as the core support of the industry, is showing a strong growth trend. According to the latest data from industry research institutions cited by authoritative media, the total sales of global original equipment manufacturer (OEM) semiconductor manufacturing equipment are expected to exceed the $120 billion mark in 2025, reaching a new industry record of $125.5 billion. This represents a steady year-on-year growth of 7.4% compared to 2024. This growth curve not only confirms the robust market demand but also highlights the strategic importance of the semiconductor industry in the global economy.
A deeper analysis of the core drivers of market growth reveals that technological breakthroughs and capacity expansion in cutting-edge logic chips and memory sectors are key engines. With the explosive growth of advanced applications such as artificial intelligence, autonomous driving, and high-performance computing, there are increasing demands for chip computing power, power consumption, and integration. The mass production requirements for 7nm and below advanced process logic chips continue to rise, directly driving a procurement boom for core manufacturing equipment such as lithography, etching, and deposition. In the memory sector, despite periodic fluctuations, the continuous breakthroughs in 3D NAND flash stacking layers, the adoption of DDR5 memory technology, and the rising demand for storage capacity in emerging applications like automotive electronics have prompted major memory manufacturers to increase capital expenditures, revitalizing the memory chip manufacturing equipment market. Meanwhile, technological transformation trends in the semiconductor industry, such as the large-scale application of Chiplet technology and the commercialization of third-generation semiconductor materials like silicon carbide, have injected new growth vitality into the manufacturing equipment market, encouraging equipment manufacturers to accelerate R&D and product upgrades to meet diverse manufacturing needs.
This growth momentum is expected to continue and strengthen further in 2026. Industry forecasts indicate that global OEM semiconductor manufacturing equipment sales are expected to reach a new high of $138.1 billion in 2026, with a year-on-year growth rate of around 10%. This optimistic outlook is underpinned by the strategic planning and policy support for the semiconductor industry by major global economies. Whether it is the U.S. CHIPS and Science Act, the European Chips Act, or China’s continued investment in the semiconductor industry, all are driving the expansion of local chip manufacturing capacity, thereby generating sustained demand for manufacturing equipment. Additionally, the restructuring and regionalization of global supply chains are leading to a more distributed development of semiconductor manufacturing capacity, providing broader growth opportunities for the equipment market.
In the semiconductor manufacturing supply chain, the turnover storage protection of wafers is a crucial link to ensure production efficiency and product yield. As a core carrier component, the performance and quality of wafer cassette directly affect the stability of the entire wafer manufacturing process. DOHONE, a globally renowned wafer cassette manufacturing powerhouse, with years of technological accumulation and industry experience, provides one-stop wafer turnover storage protection solutions for global semiconductor industry clients, becoming an important force supporting the efficient development of the semiconductor industry.
