    摘要: 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.

    摘要: Methods of additively manufacturing components include providing a first control command and/or a second control command to a cart selected from among a plurality of carts. The first control command may be configured to cause the selected cart to autonomously drive or fly to a construction container selected from among a plurality of construction containers and to receive automatically the selected construction container, and, upon the selected cart receiving automatically the selected construction container, to autonomously drive or fly the selected cart to a construction apparatus selected from among a plurality of construction apparatuses. The second control command may be configured to cause the selected cart to autonomously drive or fly to the selected construction apparatus and to receive automatically a construction container containing a component having been additively manufactured by the selected construction apparatus upon the selected construction apparatus automatically discharging the construction container containing the component.
