Top 5 Vendors in the Global Back End of the Line Semiconductor Equipment Market from 2016 to 2020: Technavio – Business Wire
LONDON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Technavio has announced the top five leading vendors in their recent global back end of the line semiconductor equipment market (BEOL) 2016-2020 report. This research report also lists four other prominent vendors that are expected to impact the market during the forecast period.
The semiconductor equipment industry is an important part of the overall semiconductor market, with semiconductor chip makers investing 20% of their sales toward obtaining manufacturing equipment. The equipment manufacturing companies are leading the development of most core process technologies in the semiconductor market. The semiconductor production equipment industry is divided into front-end and back-end process equipment. The front-end process includes cutting edge technology and integration. The front end is subdivided into front-end-of-the-line (FEOL) and back-end-of-the-line (BEOL). In 2015, BEOL market share of the total semiconductor production equipment was approximately 34%.

Competitive vendor landscape
The market is highly consolidated with key vendors such as Applied Materials, ASML, TEL, Lam Research, and KLA-Tencor accounting for a majority of the market share. The global BEOL semiconductor equipment market has great market potential because of the growing semiconductor industry. The presence of many semiconductor foundries in Taiwan, South Korea, and Japan has made APAC the largest market for semiconductor equipment. Taiwan alone accounted for 25% of the global BEOL semiconductor equipment sales in 2015.
The semiconductor market will be driven by the growth in the IoT market. It is expected that a total of 30 billion devices will be connected through IoT by 2020. This will create significant demand for semiconductor ICs during the forecast period, which will drive the demand for semiconductor production equipment and, in turn, the BEOL semiconductor equipment market. “These factors are encouraging manufacturing equipment vendors to invest in R&D and develop next-generation manufacturing equipment. They are currently concentrating on developing 10 nm pilot lines and 20 nm DRAM conversions,” says Chetan Mohan, a lead semiconductor equipment analyst from Technavio.
