Abstract: A method for the generative manufacturing of components, the method comprising melting of a metallic filler material along a trajectory on a substrate, wherein a component is built up layer by layer on the substrate, wherein the component is spatially selectively tempered by a directed fluid jet during the build-up of a layer or subsequently to the build-up of a layer and prior to the build-up of a further layer, depending on at least one spatially resolved temperature measured value detected at a specific location on the layer by a sensor or a cooling curve derived from a plurality of these temperature measured values successively detected at the location, wherein the component is spatially selectively exposed to an aerosol jet comprising a material constituent which undergoes an endothermic phase transition when the aerosol jet hits the component.
