A 3D printer for additively manufacturing a multilayer component. The 3D printer includes at least two separate dispensers coating a conveyor belt with respectively different raw material, a manufacturing unit in which at least part of the raw material is added to the component as a new layer, at least two separate recovery devices for selectively recovering the respectively different raw material, which is not consumed when a layer is added to the component, and for returning the raw material to the respective associated dispenser, and conveyor belt that transports the raw material from the dispenser to the manufacturing unit and further to the recovery device in the lateral direction.

A human-robot cooperation (HRC) workstation has a programmable industrial robot () and a manual working area () for a worker () in a region surrounding the industrial robot (). In the HRC workstation (), the working areas of the industrial robot () and the worker () overlap. Contact between the worker () and the industrial robot () is possible. The workstation () is divided into a plurality of different zones () having differently high levels of risk of hazard from the industrial robot () for the worker (). The industrial robot () is suitable for human-robot cooperation.
