For the first time, components can be produced from MAX-phases due to the use of an additive production method. A method for producing a component from MAX phases, in particular from TiSiCand/or CrAlC, in which an additive manufacturing process is disclosed. Powder is applied layer by layer and densified, the grain sizes of the powder lying at 10 &#x3bc;m to 60 &#x3bc;m, in which the scanning speed between the energy beam of the laser or electron beam and substrate with powder lies between 400 mm/s and 2000 mm/s, in particular at 1000 mm/s to 1500 mm/s, in which the power output is between 80 W and 250 W, in particular is 100 W to 170 W, in which a spot size of the energy beam lies between 30 &#x3bc;m and 300 &#x3bc;m.
