Abstract: Electro-adhesion grippers for holding workpieces, are disclosed as including a first electrode and a second electrode that mutually engage, in a plan view of the electrodes, wherein, at least in a sub-region, the first electrode and the second electrode correspond to the border lines of a two-dimensional fractal space-filling curve of a second or higher order, and wherein the border lines result from enclosing a shape of the space-filling curve on both sides on an auxiliary grid that is offset with respect to a grid of the space-filling curve by half a grid spacing in each grid direction.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for generating a three-dimensional component by selective laser melting, comprising: generating at least one process-influencing device by selective laser melting during generation of the three-dimensional component and activating the process-influencing device to act on an already completed area of the three-dimensional component prior to completion of the three-dimensional component. The invention also relates to a processing machine for carrying out the method.
