Impact of COVID-19 on the X-ray Inspection Systems
for Electronics & Semiconductors
The
COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted most industries, globally. Some
industries either shut down manufacturing operations following the directives
issued by local governments or operated at minimal capacities to ensure social
distancing and employee safety. The revenues of major companies decreased
significantly due to halted operations. X-ray inspection is important for
various industries, including electronics & semiconductors, automotive,
aerospace, and oil & gas. Hence, the X-ray inspection systems market for
electronics & semiconductors was moderately impacted due to reduced
economic activity and operations. In 2020, the electronics & semiconductors
industry suffered considerable losses due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The
semiconductor industry took a significant hit in 2020 due to acute raw material
shortages and limitations on production, further impacting the electronics
industry due to the decreased supply of semiconductor components. Also, the
high demand for semiconductors across several industries coupled with disrupted
supply chains and production shortages created a considerable demand-supply
gap. The shortages were more severe in 2020, largely due to trade restrictions.
Some companies reduced production and chip purchases due to fluctuations in the
demand for end-use products. The demand for chips was very high and continues
to rise among downstream sectors, including automotive, consumer electronics,
aerospace & defense, oil & gas, and industrial robotics. However, the
global supply chain for semiconductors has not yet fully recovered; therefore,
the shortages are expected to continue in the coming years.

PCB
inspection, one of the major applications of X-ray inspection systems for
electronics & semiconductors, witnessed a significant decrease in top-line
revenues due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Disrupted supply chains and production
losses also lowered the requirement for X-ray inspection services in the
electronics & semiconductor industries. However, in response to the global
semiconductor shortage, the semiconductor industry has optimized fabrication
utilization surpassing the normal utilization level (80%). Front-end
semiconductor fabrication facilities, or fabs, typically run above 80% capacity
utilization, with some fabrication companies reaching even 90–100% capacity
utilization. Over the past two years, the industry has steadily increased
overall fab utilization and is estimated to further increase utilization during
2022 to meet the growing demand. Higher fab utilization to boost chip
production is expected to increase the demand for X-ray inspection systems in
semiconductor chip manufacturing during the forecast period.
