The titanium alloy material segment has been categorized into Ti6Al4V (ELI), Ti6Al4V, and others. The North America additive manufacturing with metal powders market from the Ti6Al4V (ELI) segment is projected to grow at a CAGR of approximately 25.0% over the forecast period.

The cobalt alloy material segment is calculated to surpass a valuation of USD 3.4 million by 2030, expanding at a robust pace through the analysis time period.

The copper alloy material segment is expected to garner a valuation of up to USD 7.5 million by 2030, progressing at a notable CAGR through the assessment timeframe. The segment has further been segregated into CuCr1Zr, C18150, and CuNi2SiCr. The CuCr1Zr segment is anticipated to account for over 55% of the copper alloy market by 2030.

The North America additive manufacturing with metal powders market from the nickel alloy material segment is estimated to grow at a CAGR of nearly 20.0% over the forecast period. The segment has been categorized into Inconel 718, Hastelloy X, and Inconel 625. The Inconel 718 segment valuation is anticipated to reach around USD 20.5 million by 2030.

The aluminium alloy material segment has been divided into ALSi10Mg, ALSi7Mg, ALSi12, and AL6061. The ALSi7Mg segment is slated to exceed the valuation of USD 15.5 million by 2030. The AL6061 segment is projected to expand at a CAGR of approximately 20.0% through the estimated timeline.

The duplex steel material segment is calculated to expand at a CAGR of around 10.0% over the projected period. The ferritic steel material segment is set to observe sizable growth to reach a valuation of about USD 1.4 million by the end of 2030.

The tungsten material segment is projected to grow at a CAGR of approximately 21.0% over the forecast period. The tungsten carbide material segment valuation is expected to reach USD 1.2 million by 2030. The silicon carbide material segment is estimated to grow at over 3.5% CAGR through the assessment timeframe.

The aluminium oxide material segment is projected to grow at a CAGR of above 3.9% while the zirconium material segment is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of about 20.5% over the analysis timeline. The North America additive manufacturing with metal powders market from the zirconium dioxide material segment is set to register a robust CAGR of approximately 15.0% over the study timeframe.

The molybdenum material segment is expected to surpass a valuation of USD 4.5 million by the end of 2030. The magnesium material segment is calculated to grow at over 18.5% CAGR through the anticipated period. Meanwhile, the aluminium nitride material segment is projected to see steady growth at a CAGR of around 1.5% through the forecast timeline.

From the application perspective, the market has been categorized into automotive, aerospace, oil & gas, medical, energy, and other. The oil & gas application segment is speculated to amass a valuation of over USD 40.0 million by 2030.

The energy application segment is set to witness sizable growth, registering a CAGR of over 13.5% through the analysis time period. Energy applications have further been divided into nuclear and renewable.
