Abstract
A method of additive manufacturing metal components includes selecting a first component to be formed in a layer-by-layer process, and providing at least a second component to be formed in the same layer-by layer process. The components being selected such that the stresses created in the components during additive manufacturing are substantially balanced. The method further includes separating the components after completion of the layer-by-layer process.
