Equipment observation: LED testing equipment market prospects

With the development of semiconductor lighting industry of world attention, as well as the LED product testing and standards gradually improve, the semiconductor lighting detection input increases gradually, the global semiconductor lighting photoelectric detection equipment and instruments market scale rapid development. Especially since 2010, the rapid development of large size LED backlight applications and promote the global general lighting applications, the global production of high-power SMD packaging, packaging and lighting line speed and the production scale increased significantly, including Japan, Korea, and China's Taiwan region Chinese, many enterprises are actively involved, for larger scale expansion estate investment, to stimulate the production of optoelectronic detection equipment investment increased significantly. In 2011, influenced by the European economic downturn, although the investment expansion has slowed, but the global LED optoelectronic detection equipment instrument market still maintained a growth of around 5.9%, the market scale will reach $507 million.

In the LED photoelectric detection equipment and instruments in the market, LED used in the production of optoelectronic detection equipment market the most rapid growth, with the LED production scale, detection and enhance the level of automation, the size of the market in recent years continued rapid growth. In 2010, the market size of LED production of optoelectronic detection equipment reached $402 million, an increase of 43.9% compared to 2009. In 2011, the pace of economic recovery in the global slowdown, LED industry investment expansion has slowed, but the LED production by photoelectric detection equipment market still maintained a growth of 6.7%, reaching $428 million, higher than the LED market overall growth rate of the photoelectric detection device.

At present, the market penetration of LED backlight lighting and general lighting respectively reached 35% and 5%, the next few years, with the rapid development of LED backlight applications and general lighting applications market, market penetration in 2015 will reach 90% and more than 30%. The next few years, the global scale of production of LED products will grow rapidly, LED production of optoelectronic detection equipment market will become the main driving force of the global LED optoelectronic detection equipment market. In particular, around the SMD LED production, high-power LED production and production of LED lamps as the core of the production of optoelectronic detection equipment market and the automatic production line equipment market will be rapid development. Along with the scale of the general lighting market started in 2013 is expected to form an explosive growth driven by explosive growth in the LED lighting production equipment market. It is expected that in 2015, the global market size of LED photoelectric detection equipment is expected to reach $1 billion 674 million, of which, LED production of optoelectronic detection equipment market size will reach $1 billion 354 million.
