Abstract

See full text

Additive manufacturing method includes providing a number of scanners with at least partially overlapping fields of view. The scanners are positioned such that respective optical axes thereof are at an angle relative to a normal part bed. The method includes positioning the fields of view such that a cumulative field of view is substantially equal to a surface area of a part bed. A layer of materials is applied to the part bed, and each scanner directs a beam from a laser emitter to the part bed to selectively fuse the material to produce a layer of a three-dimensional part.
