  • Patent number: 11241838
    Abstract: A method for additive manufacturing of an object, in particular a hybrid object, based on a data record describing an object to be additively manufactured, includes providing a data record describing the object to be additively manufactured, subdividing the data record into at least two sub-data records, wherein a first sub-data record describes a first sub-object forming a first object part of the object to be additively manufactured, and at least one other sub-data record describes another sub-object forming another object part of the object to be additively manufactured, forming the first sub-object based on the first sub-data record in a first additive construction process, and forming the at least one other sub-object based on the at least one other sub-data record in at least one separate other additive construction process, wherein the at least one other sub-object is formed at least partially, especially completely, on the first sub-object.

  • Patent number: 11059224
    Abstract: Plant (1) for additively manufacturing of three-dimensional objects (2), comprising at least two apparatuses (3, 4) for additively manufacturing of three-dimensional objects (2) by means of successive layerwise selective irradiation and consolidation of layers of a build material (5) which can be consolidated by means of an energy beam (6-9), wherein a separate beam generating unit (10) configured to generate at least one energy beam (6-9) that is guidable to at least one of the apparatuses (3, 4).

  • Publication number: 20190143600
    Abstract: Method for operating at least one apparatus (1) for additively manufacturing of three-dimensional objects (2) by means of successive layerwise selective irradiation and consolidation of layers of a build material (3, 14) which can be consolidated by means of an energy source, which apparatus (1) comprises at least one build material container (4, 8) adapted to receive build material (3, 14), characterized in that the number of build processes at least one part of the build material (3, 14) received in the at least one build material container (4, 8) has been used in is determined.

  • Publication number: 20190126559
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for additive manufacturing of an object 2, in particular a hybrid object, based on a data record (DS) describing an object 2 to be additively manufactured, comprising the following steps: providing a data record (DS) describing the object 2 to be additively manufactured, subdividing the data record (DS) into at least two sub-data records (TDS1, TDS2), wherein a first sub-data record (TDS1) describes a first sub-object 2a forming a first object part of the object 2 to be additively manufactured, and at least one other sub-data record (TDS2) describes another sub-object 2b forming another object part of the object 2 to be additively manufactured, forming the first sub-object 2a based on the first sub-data record (TDS1) in a first additive construction process, and forming the at least one other sub-object 2b based on the at least one other sub-data record (TDS2) in at least one separate other additive construction process, wherein the at least one other sub-object 2b is form
