The North America SMT equipment market was valued at US$ 1,671.57 million in 2023 and is expected to reach US$ 2,699.35 million by 2031; it is estimated to register a CAGR of 6.2% from 2023 to 2031.
Growing Consumer Electronics Industry Fuels North America SMT Equipment Market
Surface mount technology (SMT) has revolutionized electronic assembly, enabling the development of compact designs with higher assembly density, improved performance, and reduced costs. SMT's automated assembly processes reduce labor costs and increase production efficiency. The smaller form factor reduces material costs, making consumer electronics such as televisions and gaming consoles more affordable and accessible. Further, consumers globally are increasingly seeking more powerful and feature-laden devices. Consumer electronics such as smartphones, laptops, tablets, cameras, wearables, and home automation are adopted globally. Smartphones have become an integral part of the lifestyle. With the rising adoption of smartphones, there is a rise in smartphone penetration across the globe. According to the GSMA report, by the end of 2021, smartphones accounted for 83% of mobile connections in North America, with 30 million new smartphone connections expected by 2025. Smart electronic devices have also gained popularity. Thus, the growing consumer electronics industry drives the North America SMT equipment market.
North America SMT Equipment Market Overview
The North America SMT equipment market has been segmented into the three major country: the US, Canada, and Mexico. North America is the second-largest contributor to the SMT equipment market. The rapid expansion of the electronics business has increased the global demand for SMT equipment. This is being driven by rising demand for 3G and 4G telecom networks, consumer electronics, LED and CFL lighting, LCD/LED monitors and televisions, and other products in the computers, communications, and consumer electronics industries. The Creating Helpful Incentives to Produce Semiconductors (CHIPS) and Science Act, passed in August 2022, authorized subsidies and tax advantages to encourage the development of sophisticated semiconductors in the US. This was followed by broad limitations on the export of chip manufacturing technology to China. The CHIPS and Science Act incentivizes Taiwanese, Korean, and American companies to establish factories in the US. As a result, in April 2024, the US Department of Commerce and TSMC Arizona signed a non-binding preliminary memorandum of terms (PMT) for up to US$ 6.6 billion in direct funding under the CHIPS and Science Act. TSMC also announced plans to build a third fab at TSMC Arizona to meet strong customer demand, leveraging the most advanced semiconductor process technology in the US.
