SEMI  announced that following a record of $ 107.4 billion in 2022,semiconductorSales of equipment in 2023 will fall 18.6%to $ 87.4 billion.Looking forward to next year, the sales of semiconductor equipment will recover strongly.SEMI predicts that the sales of semiconductor equipment in 2024 will reach $ 100 billion, which will be jointly promoted by the front and back -end fields.
    SEMI president and executive officer Ajit Manocha said: Despite the current resistance, after the semiconductor equipment market has undergone historic many years, it is expected to be adjusted in 2023. It is expected that it will be expectedA strong rebound occurred in 2024.The predictions of strong long -term growth drive from high -performance computing and ubiquitous connection drive remain unchanged.
    First, according to the market segmentation market.
    SEMI pointed out in the report that the sales of wafer plant equipment (including wafer processing, wafer facility and mask/mask equipment) are expected to decrease by 18.8%to US $ 76.4 billion by 2023, exceeding SEMIThe 16.8% decrease predicted at the end of 2022.It is estimated that by 2024, the field of fabry plant will account for most of the recovery, reaching $ 100 billion, and sales will reach $ 87.8 billion, an increase of 14.8%.
    Due to the challenges and weak semiconductor demand of macroeconomic conditions, the decline in sales of back -end equipment market segments in 2022 is expected to continue in 2023.By 2023, semiconductorTest EquipmentMarket sales are expected to shrink by 15%to $ 6.4 billion, while sales and packaging equipment sales are expected to decrease by 20.5%to $ 4.6 billion.However, the field of testing equipment and assembly and packaging equipment is expected to increase by 7.9% and 16.4% by 2024.
     Second, divide according to the application.
    SEMI pointed out in the report that the sales of the equipment and logic applications accounted for more than half of the total income of the wafer plant equipment.Weak.It is expected that the demand for leading foundry and logic in 2023 will remain stable, but the increase in mature node expenditures offset a slight weakness.In the 1920s, labor and logical investment are expected to increase by 3%.
    due to consumer and business pairMemoryThe demand for storage continues to be weak, and it is expected to be 2023  DRAM  equipment sales will drop by 28%to $ 8.8 billion, but in 2024, it will rebound 31%to $ 11.6 billion.In 2023, the sales of NAND equipment are expected to fall by 51%to $ 8.4 billion.This also makes it a poor semiconductor equipment application.By 2024, it will surge by 59% to $ 13.3 billion.
    then look at the current status of the sales of semiconductor equipment.
    According to data provided by SEMI, it is expected that in 2023 and 2024, mainland China, Taiwan and South Korea will still be the three major destinations for equipment expenditure.Taiwan is expected to re -occupy a leading position in 2023, and mainland China is expected to return to the top position in 2024.Equipment expenditures in most areas are tracked and expected to decline in 2023, and then resume growth in 2024.
