LED plant equipment needs have been warmed , SEMI said lighting device manufacturing equipment needs for the past two years has reached its peak , can be expected later this year , the industry started to invest in LED devices in turn , is expected in 2014 LED devices the substantial growth .SEMI -sponsored LED manufacturing process carried out this week, the upcoming exhibition , exhibitors , mostly plant, but Epistar , Everlight , Chan Yuan are invited to participate in forum activities , LED industry Everlight, Ronda, East Bay commence in the second half ready to expand production operations, preparing for next year's lighting market .LED TV backlight penetration will reach this year's 9 percent next year, will replace the backlight illumination device for promoting the kinetic energy of the main applications of LED industry , as a new generation of solid-state lighting mainstream technology, LED now from the past major LCD panel backlight market quickly extended to the general lighting market. In addition, environmentally friendly energy trend , driven by governments actively promote LED lighting to replace traditional incandescent bulbs , LED lighting market forecast there will be explosive growth , thereby bringing equipment and materials enormous opportunities .Market research firm Topology Research Institute analysis pointed out that , thanks to the LED panel backlighting and lighting needs warming , this year Taiwan's LED industry has a chance to turn around , the estimated total amount of the second half shipments will reach $ 1.699 billion , annual growth rate of 2.23% , so that Taiwan 's LED industry toward positive cycle , LED process equipment and material growth is expected to be optimistic right.Taiwan's LED industry in both sides of the LED epitaxial total capacity is the world's first one , accounting for about 30% of capacity. In addition, according to market research agency YoleDeveloppement predicts 2014 will be accompanied by MOCVD machine for general lighting into new capacity investment cycle, and there is room for growth in 400 ( the leading global epitaxial crystal power plant has about 300 sets of MOCVD), and is expected in 2014 to 2015 will be the next MOCVD machine to increase peak. SEMI said, from smart phones , tablet computers and automotive market demand, as well as national policies to promote under , LED lighting rapidly growing PV market , smart lighting, and home energy efficient LED application market has become mainstream , market research estimates, 2013 ~ 2018 intelligent lighting market value compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 36 % in 2018 to reach $ 6.748 billion , significantly pushing up demand for related equipment and materials .
