Contents

Different technologies of shaping by means of generative manufacturing processes are classified in the context of conventional manufacturing processes and the differences are worked out. The different heat sources (laser and electron beam as well as electric arc) for heating and melting as well as the physical and mechanical properties of the fusion metallurgical composite of the base and/or additive materials are explained. Taking into account the component complexity and quality, the generative manufacturing processes and the equipment technologies used are considered in detail. According to criteria such as efficiency, reproducibility and controllability, the entire process chain for the production of functional components is explained.
