COVID-19 IMPACT

Market Growth Restrained by Pandemic due to Supply Chain Disruptions

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden market growth reflected by the rise in CAGR is attributable to market’s growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels.

The pandemic resulted in disruptions to supply chains, manufacturing operations, and retail businesses, leading to reduced consumer spending and demand for non-essential items like wafer laser saw. Lockdowns and social distancing measures also limited buying opportunities, further affecting sales and distribution channels. As a result, the wafer laser saw technology market experienced a decline in demand and revenue during the pandemic. While the market may eventually recover as the situation improves, the immediate impact of COVID-19 was predominantly negative for the global market.

WAFER LASER SAW TECHNOLOGY MARKET SEGMENTATION

By Type

• 200mm diameter: 200mm wafers are a more cost effective solution, and compatible sawing equipment. These saws use a thin blade to cut through the wafer, they are most common for 200mm wafers. Nowadays they are very less used in compare to 300mm wafers.

• 300mm diameter: They are the most commonly used thin, diamond coated abrasive blade used to cut through wafer. They offer precise cutting that ensure minimal damage to the circuits during the dicing process.

• 600mm diameter: 600mm diameter wafer could be a potential future direction for the semiconductor industry. They are not commercially available because of the dominance use of 300mm diameter wafers.

By Application

• Mechanical Engineering: These saws uses a high speed spindle that rotates a thin, diamond coated blade that controls the depth of cut into the wafer. These saws use a laser beam delivering system with focusing optics to direct the beam into wafer.

• Aerospace: Saw devices help in navigation systems by providing correct positioning data. Micro Electro mechanisms systems devices require thin silicon wafers. Laser saws offer precise cutting which is used in MEMS

• Chemical Industry: Uses of laser saws in the chemical industry is limited, yet there are some indirect applications. Precise cutting of piezoelectric materials is very necessary for sensor functions.

DRIVING FACTORS

Growing demand for electronics to Boost the Market

One of the key driving factors in the global wafer laser saw technology market growth is the increasing use of electronic products in the world. As more people migrate to cities, there is a growing need for electronic products and practical  solutions. Electronic devices have become much smaller and compact , therefore there is more need for precise cutting technologies like wafer laser saws. These saws are used by semi conducting industries for dicing silicon wafers into integrated circuits.

Increase in technological advancements  to Expand the Market

Another driving factor in the global wafer laser saw technology market is the advanced technology integrated into wafer saws. These saw systems allow loading and unloading of the wafers automatically and monitor the wafers continuously. There are more robotic enhanced machinery used to reduce human errors and help to continue operations.
