What happened

Major South Korean semiconductor materials, components and equipment suppliers will attend SEMICON West 2026, scheduled for Oct. 13-15 at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, US. According to the companies, growing investment in semiconductor manufacturing facilities in the US is drawing increased interest from South Korean firms in SEMICON West. Among materials suppliers, ENF Technology will showcase process materials including etchants, cleaning solutions, strippers and thinners; the company has supplied Samsung Electronics' Austin facility from its Kyle, Texas plant since 2021, completed capacity expansions for stripper and thinner production early this year, and began supplying Samsung Electronics' Taylor fab in the first half. Dongjin Semichem will present photoresists, thinners and CMP slurries; its thinners and high-purity sulfuric acid production facilities in Texas are targeting mass production by the end of this year and are expected to support Samsung Electronics' Taylor fab and other local operations. Equipment makers will showcase advanced packaging technologies for AI servers: Hanmi Semiconductor will exhibit TC bonders for HBM and 2.5D packaging, and Shindo Eng Lab will introduce its TGCV substrate technology combining glass and ceramic. Inspection and metrology firms will participate: Intekplus will present automated visual inspection and 3D metrology for packages and substrates and recently secured an order from a Japanese substrate maker for inspection equipment for glass-substrate R&D; Koh Young Technology will showcase 3D measurement-based inspection solutions. Test component suppliers ISC and LEENO Industrial will also attend. Gas delivery and control component suppliers BMT, DK-Lok and ASFlow, as well as equipment component and wafer-handling materials suppliers BOBU Hi-Tech and Glint Materials, will be represented. SEMI expects more than 1,500 booths and over 35,000 attendees at this year's exhibition.
