Global Wafer Dicing Machine Market - Shaping the Future of Chips with Next-Gen Dicing Innovations

Wafer Dicing Machine Market Definition and Analysis
A wafer dicing machine, also known as dicing equipment, is a high-precision device that uses blades or lasers to cut chips. It plays a critical role in semiconductor back-end packaging and testing, specifically in wafer dicing and wafer-level packaging (WLP) dicing processes. The quality and efficiency of dicing directly impact the final packaging quality and cost of chips. Downstream applications include a wide range of semiconductor products such as integrated circuits (ICs), discrete devices, sensors, and optoelectronic components.
Wafer dicing mainly consists of two methods: blade dicing and laser dicing. Blade dicing is the most widely used technique, accounting for approximately 70% of the total dicing market. It is primarily used for dicing thicker wafers (greater than 100 μm) and offers advantages such as high efficiency, low cost, and long tool life. Blade dicing is expected to remain the mainstream method for a long period, with diamond blade dicing being the dominant technology.
Laser dicing is a non-contact process and accounts for about 20% of the dicing market. It is mainly applied to thinner wafers (less than 100 μm) and offers benefits such as higher precision and efficiency. Additionally, it avoids damage to the surface of crystalline silicon. For ultra-thin wafers (less than 30 μm), plasma dicing is typically used due to its faster processing speed. In chiplet technology, laser dicing machines are the most critical equipment for cutting chiplets.

Market Overview:
According to LookWhole Insight, the global Wafer Dicing Machine market is projected to reach USD 2.04 Billion in 2024. It is expected to grow to USD 3.06 Billion by 2033, registering a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.61% during the forecast period (2025-2033).

Key Development Trends
1. Wafer Production Capacity Continues to Grow
SEMI, the international semiconductor industry association, released a report stating that global semiconductor production capacity, after growing 5.5% to 29.6 million wafers per month in 2023, is expected to increase another 6.4% in 2024, surpassing the 30 million wafer mark. The semiconductor industry anticipates launching 18 new wafer fab construction projects in 2025. These new projects include three 200mm and 15 300mm facilities, most of which are expected to begin operations between 2026 and 2027.
On the one hand, traditional chip manufacturers such as TSMC and Samsung are accelerating their global expansion, leveraging their technological, financial, and brand advantages to seize market share in various regions. On the other hand, wafer fabs are booming in emerging regions such as China and Singapore. Leveraging policy support and local market potential, they are narrowing the gap with industry leaders, bringing new uncertainties to the global semiconductor supply chain.

2. Higher Equipment Performance Requirements
With the advancement of thinning process technology and the maturity of stacked packaging technology, chip thickness is becoming increasingly thinner. At the same time, the diameter of the wafer is gradually increasing, more circuits are integrated per unit area, and the space left for dividing the dicing lanes is becoming smaller. Technological updates have put forward higher performance requirements for equipment. As one of the key equipment in the IC post-packaging production process, the dicing machine has also developed from 6 inches and 8 inches to 12 inches.

Global Wafer Dicing Machine Market: Competitive Landscape
Among the major global wafer dicing machine manufacturers, DISCO is the largest, representing the highest level of international semiconductor dicing machine technology. Its products consistently lead the market in terms of accuracy, stability, and market share, achieving positioning accuracy of 3μm and repeatability of 2μm.
Tokyo Seimitsu, originally focused on measuring instruments, developed its first wafer dicing machine, the A-WD-75A, in 1970. In 2011, it began mass production of the AD3000T/S (1000 mm/s), the world's smallest and fastest dicing machine for semiconductor production lines. It boasts a positioning accuracy of 2μm, repeatability of 1μm, and a maximum speed of 1000mm/s.
GL Tech is a leader in blade dicing machines in China. Through its acquisitions of LP, the inventor of the global dicing machine, and ADT, the world's third-largest semiconductor dicing machine manufacturer, GL Tech has comprehensive R&D capabilities, accumulated technical expertise, and practical production experience in equipment, components, and consumables for semiconductor back-end packaging and testing equipment. LP is the world's first company to invent semiconductor dicing machines, and has high-performance and high-precision air spindles. It and DISCO are the only two companies in the industry that have both dicing equipment and high-precision air-floating spindles for core components. ADT is the world's third-ranked dicing machine manufacturer, and ADT blades are well-known in the industry.
