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.
