The surface mount technology market size is expected to reach USD 10.24 billion by 2034, according to a new study by Polaris Market Research. The report “Surface Mount Technology Market Size, Share, Trends, Industry Analysis Report: By Equipment, Service (Designing, Test & Prototyping, Supply Chain Services, Manufacturing, and Aftermarket Services), Application, and Region (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa) – Market Forecast, 2025–2034” gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.

Surface mount technology (SMT) is a method of mounting electronic components directly onto the surface of printed circuit boards (PCBs) for efficient and compact assembly.

Automation in manufacturing has revolutionized the surface mount technology market trends. Automated systems such as pick-and-place machines, advanced soldering techniques, and high-precision inspection tools have significantly increased the speed, accuracy, and cost-effectiveness of the surface mount technology process. These innovations enable manufacturers to produce high-quality electronic components with minimal human intervention. Continuous improvements in automation further improve the efficiency and scalability of surface mount technology processes, driving their adoption across various industries, thereby driving the surface mount technology market growth.

The rollout of 5G networks and the rising adoption of the Internet of Things (IoT) are creating new surface mount technology market opportunities. Both technologies require advanced, high-performance components that can handle increased data speeds and connectivity. Surface mount technology enables the manufacturing of compact and efficient devices that are essential for 5G infrastructure and IoT applications. From smart homes to connected cars and wearable devices, surface mount technology provides the necessary component density and reliability for these products, which propels demand for surface mount technology.
