Nickel & Cobalt registered the second-largest market share in 2024 in the metal type segment in terms of value
Nickel & cobalt accounted for the second-largest share in the 3D printing metals market due to their mechanical properties, thermal stability, and corrosion resistance essential for demanding applications. Nickel-based superalloys are used in aerospace, automotive, and energy industries, while cobalt alloys are vital for medical prosthetics and implants. 3D printing’s ability to produce intricate, lightweight structures with these metals makes them appealing for optimizing performance in mission-critical components.
Directed energy deposition segment registered the second-largest market share in terms of value in 2024
Directed energy deposition (DED) is the second-largest category in the 3D printing metals market by technology, offering flexibility for high-value and large-scale applications and the ability to repair or add material to existing parts. Unlike powder bed fusion, DED can use various metal types and print directly onto parts, benefiting aerospace, defense, oil & gas, and heavy machinery industries.
