Abstract: An apparatus includes a build plate, a powder application apparatus that applies metal powder onto the build plate to form a powder layer, a beam irradiation apparatus that irradiates the powder layer with an electron beam, and a control unit that controls the powder application apparatus and the beam irradiation apparatus. When the powder layer is preheated by irradiation with the electron beam, the control unit sets a beam size and an irradiation position of the electron beam such that lines of the electron beam do not overlap each other at least at a start of preheating, and controls the beam irradiation apparatus to gradually increase at least one of a beam current and the beam size of the electron beam from the start of preheating to an end of preheating.

Abstract: Even when shape elements having opposing appropriate manufacturing conditions are mixed in one cross-sectional shape, the entire cross-sectional shape is manufactured under an appropriate manufacturing condition. A build data generating device generating build data for controlling a three-dimensional powder bed fusion additive manufacturing apparatus that manufactures an article by melting a cross-sectional shape of each layer by irradiation of a beam includes: a region segmentation unit that performs processing for segmenting the cross-sectional shape cut out from three-dimensional shape data of the article into a fine region and a coarse region; and a condition application unit that applies different manufacturing conditions to the fine region and the coarse region segmented by the region segmentation unit to generate the build data.

Abstract: A three-dimensional powder bed fusion additive manufacturing apparatus includes a determination unit that determines presence or absence of powder scattering in a second preheating step using at least a third image that is an image of a powder layer photographed by a camera after the second preheating step among a first image that is an image of the powder layer photographed by the camera after a first preheating step, a second image that is an image of the powder layer photographed by the camera after the powder application step, and the third image.

Abstract: Provided is a technique capable of reducing variation in density of scanning lines when generating the scanning lines for manufacturing an article by three-dimensional powder bed fusion additive manufacturing. A build data generating device generates build data for controlling the three-dimensional powder bed fusion additive manufacturing apparatus that melts the cross-sectional shape of each layer by irradiation of a beam to manufacture the article. The build data generating device includes a build data generating unit that generates a plurality of scanning lines in a region of the cross-sectional shape cut out from three-dimensional shape data of the article by a predetermined beam scanning method, and generates correction scanning lines in a portion where the arrangement of the scanning lines becomes sparse and/or a portion where the arrangement of the scanning lines becomes dense.
