The company will utilize its proprietary surface mount technology equipment to advance the automation and standardization of semiconductor back-end manufacturing processes.

Context

Japan’s Fuji Corporation has joined the SATAS (Semiconductor Assembly and Test Automation and Standardization) consortium to lead research and development for high-precision die bonding automation. This initiative focuses on standardizing the semiconductor back-end process, specifically addressing the manual transport and placement challenges that currently bottleneck assembly and test factories. By leveraging its expertise in surface mount technology, Fuji Corporation aims to develop automated solutions that integrate seamlessly with the evolving chiplet ecosystem and advanced packaging requirements. This move aligns with a broader push toward intelligent manufacturing, following Fuji Corporation's strategic partnership with Arch Systems in March 2025 to deploy AI-guided actions across its global SMT lines. The integration of AI-enhanced process controls is critical for the automatic silver sintering and die attach market, which is projected to grow to $195.2 million by 2030. These advancements allow manufacturers to transition from reactive troubleshooting to proactive optimization, ensuring high-yield production for power semiconductors used in electric vehicles and renewable energy.
