Global sales of total semiconductor manufacturing equipment by original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) are forecast to reach a record high of $133 billion in 2025, growing 13.7 percent year-on-year, SEMI predicted in its Year-End Total Semiconductor Equipment Forecast – OEM Perspective at SEMICON Japan 2025.
Growth in semiconductor manufacturing equipment sales is expected to continue in the two following years of the forecast period, with projections of $145 billion in 2026 and $156 billion in 2027.
This growth will be driven primarily by investments related to AI, particularly in leading-edge logic, memory, and the adoption of advanced packaging technologies. [Read more…] about Global semiconductor manufacturing equipment sales projected to reach record $156 billion in 2027, says SEMI
