Industry Statistics and Trends
Market size and recent performance (2015-2030)
Industry revenue has declined at a CAGR of 4.2 % over the past five years, to reach an estimated $26.1bn in 2025.
Trends and Insights
Investment in semiconductor resilience has driven demand for equipment
- The impact of the pandemic exposed vulnerabilities in the US computer chip manufacturing ecosystem, leading to inefficiencies in all stages of the semiconductor production space, including machinery manufacturing, which experienced significant declines in revenue between 2022 and 2023. Supply-chain disruptions have led to strategic shifts in the chip production sector, which has notably included the CHIPS and Science Act of 2022, designating $52.7 billion to enhance domestic semiconductor manufacturing and research. Of this, $39 billion has been allocated to gradually target the construction and expansion of fabrication facilities, while $13.2 billion focuses on research and development initiatives. Meanwhile an additional $500 million has been allocated specifically for semiconductor machinery and related supply chain enhancements.

Industry outlook (2025-2030)
Market size is projected to grow over the next five years.
Trends and Insights
Domestic demand for advanced semiconductor machinery will accelerate as fabrication projects are completed
- According to the Semiconductor Industry Association, after trending towards 8% of global FAB capacity, the United States has recovered to reach 10% and will likely reach 14% of global capacity by 2032 as additional funding is allocated to chip manufacturing. Between 2022 and 2032, the United States is on pace to achieve a 203% increase in chip fabrication plant production capacity, which is by far the world's largest growth rate moving forward. Compared to an 11% growth rate between 2012 and 2022, this will be a significant transition and increase demand for machinery equipment moving forward.
