METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING A PLURALITY OF COMPONENTS DURING AN ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING PROCESS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240261860 titled 'METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING A PLURALITY OF COMPONENTS DURING AN ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING PROCESS

The patent application describes a method of manufacturing components using additive manufacturing with a powder containing particles that are melted to form the components.

  • Components are formed in layers along a manufacturing plane, with adjacent components having a predefined gap between them.
  • The gap width is determined by the particle size distribution of the powder, ensuring proper spacing between components.
  • This method allows for the efficient and precise production of multiple components in a single manufacturing process.
  • By controlling the gap width, the quality and integrity of the components can be maintained.
  • The use of additive manufacturing with controlled gaps enhances the overall efficiency and accuracy of component production.

Original Abstract Submitted

methods of manufacturing a plurality of components during an additive manufacturing process by means of a powder including particles, which is at least locally melted in order to form the plurality of components. the plurality of components can be formed in a component layer extending along a manufacturing plane, in which a first component lies adjacent to a second component of the component layer at least in a spatial direction along the manufacturing plane. in this connection it is proposed to provide a gap having a gap width between the first component and the second component of the component layer, which is predefined using a particle size distribution of the particles in the powder.
