The disclosure provides methods of additive manufacture of components in layers in a powder bed by at least two laser beams that can be deflected two-dimensionally over the same powder bed region. Each laser focal spot is projected onto the power bed and is or is set to a diameter of less than or equal to 300 μm. Components to be produced in the powder bed region are manufactured by each of the laser beams, and each individual surface contour of the component is manufactured solely by one of the laser beams.

Methods for the additive manufacture of components in layers, and corresponding computer program products

A machine tool for processing workpieces includes a processing device from which processed products to be discharged can be produced from a workpiece; and a discharge device including a discharge flap that can be pivoted into a discharge position inclined downwards relative to a horizontal position in order to discharge processed products and which defines a discharge direction in the discharge position, the discharge flap comprising a part support disposed along the upper side of the discharge flap along which the processed products move during discharge in the discharge direction, where the part support has at least two support regions which extend in the discharge direction and which are configured to accommodate different types of processed products.

Workpiece discharging devices and related systems and methods

A laser processing machine arrangement includes a laser processing head for laser processing a workpiece, the workpiece comprising a processing zone from which laser radiation is emitted radially during operation of the laser processing head, a laser protection wall that surrounds the laser processing head and a danger region disposed around the laser processing head, the laser protection wall shielding the laser radiation that is emitted radially from the processing, and at least one opening in the laser protection wall, through which the danger region can be entered, wherein the laser protection wall and the at least one in the laser protection wall are arranged in such a manner that the at least one opening is completely shadowed by the laser protection wall or is completely shadowed with cooperation of the laser protection wall from the laser radiation during operation of the laser processing head.

Laser processing machines with barrier-free accesses

A machine tool for processing workpieces comprises a stroke drive device with a pressing tool, with a motorized drive including two motorized drive units which are controlled independently and wedge gear elements between the motorized drive and the pressing tool. The wedge gear elements comprise two drive-side wedge gear elements, each one being associated with a motorized drive unit, and two output-side wedge gear elements attached to the pressing tool, with each output-side wedge gear element opposite to an associated respective drive-side wedge gear element and forming a gear element pair. The wedge gear elements of each gear element pair are opposite each other inclined at a wedge angle with respect to a positioning axis and inclined in opposing directions with respect to the positioning axis. The motorized drive is configured to move the pressing tool along a stroke axis and position the stroke drive device along the positioning axis.
