==Original Abstract Submitted==

a method of manufacturing a component includes scanning a component using computed tomography to provide scanned data. additive manufacturing data is developed using the scanned data compared to reference data. depositing powder using an additive manufacturing device based upon the additive manufacturing data to provide a first object the additive manufacturing device melting the powder. determining predicted characteristics of the first object based upon the additive manufacturing data. the predicted characteristics of the first object are compared to the reference data to provide machining data. machining the first object using the machining data then occurs. a system for manufacturing a component is also disclosed.
