Nikon plans to introduce lower-cost chipmaking equipment to compete with ASML, the company's chief executive said. The statement was reported by Nikkei. No additional details on pricing, timelines, or specific product lines were provided in the report.
ASML currently supplies the majority of advanced lithography systems used in semiconductor production. Nikon has historically focused on older-generation equipment. The reported move would position Nikon in a segment of the market that serves manufacturers seeking reduced capital expenditure.
