Abstract
A laser sintering device and a laser sintering method are provided. The laser sintering device includes a laser source and a sintering platform. The laser source projects a laser beam on a plane, and by changing directions of the laser beam an action area on the plane is defined. The sintering platform provides a sintering area. The sintering platform is arranged in such a way that at least a first region of the sintering area is located within the action area and at least a second region of the sintering area is located outside the action area. The sintering platform is movable such that at least a part of the second region replaces at least a part of the first region within the action area.
