Abstract
Method for additive manufacturing of at least one component comprises the manufacture, by depositing and selective melting of layers of powder, of at least one intermediate assembly comprising the component produced at an inclined angle and forming an angle of between 20° and 70° with a manufacturing support plate, a support interposed between the support plate and a lower base of the component, and at least one local supporting element resting against the rear frontal face of the component. During the selective-melting phases of the manufacturing step, incipient cracks are formed in regions of connection of the support and of the supporting element to the component. The component is separated from the support and the local supporting element after the manufacturing step by breaking of the connecting regions.
