The Market Reports

Synopsis

The global market for Semiconductor OHT (Overhead Hoist Transport) was estimated to be worth US$ 781 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 1471 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 9.6% during the forecast period 2025-2031.

OHT (Overhead Hoist Transfer) is the abbreviation of Overhead Hoist Transfer. It is an automatic handling system that can travel on the aerial track. The belt is driven by the motor of the lifting device and automatically grabs the FOUP (Front Open Unified Pod) set at the port. It realizes the fast and stable transportation of wafers in each processing area without occupying the floor space of the clean room and has become the most widely used transportation tool in wafer manufacturing plants.

Global key players of Semiconductor OHT (Overhead Hoist Transport) include DAIFUKU, Murata Machinery, SFA Engineering Corporation, SYNUS Tech and Mirle Automation, etc. In terms of product type, Single Track is the largest segment, occupied for a share of 80%.

Generative AI has risen rapidly over the past two years with major tech companies actively deploying large-scale model products; these models, characterized by enormous parameter counts, massive training datasets, and high complexity, have placed extremely high demands on computing resources—making high-performance computing, ample storage space, and fast data transmission the core elements for their training and operation—which in turn has spurred a significant increase in demand for high-performance semiconductor products, while the memory market, stimulated by robust demand, has seen a gradual price rebound accompanied by increased sales that have driven both volume and price upward, further energizing the semiconductor industry; according to data from the World Semiconductor Trade Statistics (WSTS), global semiconductor market revenue reached $628 billion in 2024, marking a 19.1% year-on-year growth, and with ongoing breakthroughs in innovative architectures and data processing methods, the advantages of this new paradigm are gradually emerging, driving large-scale adoption of emerging applications such as AIPC, AI smartphones, and AI earphones, with market revenue expected to reach $718.9 billion in 2025—a 13.2% year-on-year increase—thus providing new development opportunities in the digital economy era.

The rapid overall growth of the semiconductor industry, particularly the further expansion of 300mm wafer fabs, will further boost demand for AMHS and OHT.
