The repatriation policy of the US semiconductor manufacturing is spurring suppliers to increase investment in the US and accelerate plans for plant establishment. Due to the high labor costs and scarcity of technical talent in the US market, suppliers are striving to introduce solutions of automated semiconductor production. AI and digital twin technology are becoming the core of smart manufacturing by benefiting production efficiency and yield improvement. Moreover, with the upgrade in coverage rate and deployment flexibility of smart logistics equipment, it is expected to develop from single equipment to a multi-equipment collaborative ecosystem. Taiwanese suppliers such as Techman and KENMEC are actively seizing opportunities in the US semiconductor automation market through their technological prowess and system integration experience.

Key Highlights

• The US semiconductor repatriation policy drives suppliers to invest and expand their presence in the US.
