Abstract

This Frost & Sullivan research service titled World Surface Mount Technology (SMT) Screen Printer Markets provides an analysis of the various factors driving and restraining the market, revenue forecasts, geographic trends, and competitive structure. In this research, Frost & Sullivan's expert analysts thoroughly examine the following screen printer markets: manual, semi-automatic, and fully automatic.

Demand from Various Industries and Electronics Manufacturing Services Providers Bolsters the Screen Printers Market

A surge in demand from various end-user industries such as automotive, telecommunications, aerospace, and semiconductors as well as the electronics manufacturing services (EMS) sector that caters to these industries has galvanized the surface mount technology (SMT) screen printer market. To meet the higher demand from these industries, EMS providers are increasing the number of SMT lines in house, which, in turn, is spurring the sales of screen printers. Additionally, the market is expected to obtain a greater number of orders from original design manufacturers (ODMs) - specifically from the telecommunication industry in the coming years - since ODMs are trying to broaden their portfolio by manufacturing products apart from just designing them.

The market is poised for an increased growth with competition from used and leased equipment diminishing rapidly, compared to the previous years. Added to this is the trend of consolidation across all verticals. "When a tier-one or top-tier company acquires a lower-tier company, the former usually prefers to have similar production lines in order to avoid defects and mismatch," says the analyst of this research. "With many companies, especially in the information and communication technology sector expecting high technology growth in the years to come, the SMT screen printer market is likely to experience significant growth."

Miniaturization and Digitalization of Electronic Devices Make a Case for SMT Screen Printers

Comprehensive changes in the electronics industry have had a telling effect on the SMT screen printers market, as these screen printers will be required to fulfill the high-end automation needs of the end-user industry. The rising demand for smaller electronic equipment has compelled manufacturers to reduce the size of the components on circuit boards. This has challenged assembly vendors to accurately place the components on the board, which, in turn, could compromise the quality of the end product. Screen printers can benefit greatly from this situation, since many OEMs and EMS providers feel they can achieve accuracy by using fully automatic screen printers to increase automation on the shop floor.

The market for screen printers is also expected to get a leg up with the electronics industry’s increasing shift from manual to automated solutions, and thereby, integrated solutions. "In the highly competitive end-user markets, customers are on the look out for one-stop machines or rather, have moved on from using individual machines for manufacturing purposes," remarks the analyst. "They are focused on being self equipped in order to gain a competitive edge." These factors are expected to go a long way in enhancing the market for SMT screen printers.
