The expanded plant will triple the company’s capacity in Singapore and double its global capacity. ASML is one of the world’s leading technology companies and a major player in the global semiconductor value chain. The technology and machines designed here help produce chips in Singapore, South Korea, and the United States.

Furthermore, the world’s largest chipmakers need the equipment. EUV lithography machines are the most expensive in the production of processor chips. At present, only ASML in the world can manufacture EUV lithography machines. 

Over the past decade, ASML has sold about 140 EUV lithography machines, and each system now costs as much as $200 million. The price of its new generation of high numerical aperture (High NA) lithography machine will exceed 300 million US dollars.
