Abstract

See full text

A method of producing a curved plate by additive layer manufacture is provided. The method includes building up the plate layer-by-layer such that a first layer forms a bottom edge of the plate and the plate is additively extended upwards therefrom by subsequent layers such that a last layer forms an opposing top edge of the plate. In this way, spaced, first and second lateral edges of the plate each grow layer-by-layer to extend between respective ends of the bottom and top edges. The plate thus built up arches over from the bottom edge to adopt a curved shape on cross-sections through the plate normal to the bottom edge.
