Abstract
An additive manufacturing method uses an additive manufacturing device performing additive machining by controlling a machining head including a nozzle to supply columnar build material to a machining region on a target surface and a beam nozzle to irradiate the machining region with beam melting the build material, the nozzle and the beam nozzle being provided non-coaxially. When additive machining is performed in a state where the machining head is located with central axes of the beam and the build material being positioned on a single vertical plane, the machining path is divided into divided machining paths such that the machining head is moved in one direction along a direction of the build-material central axis when motion of the machining head is projected onto a plane perpendicular to an irradiation direction of the beam, and the machining head is moved along each divided machining path to perform additive machining.
