Abstract

A method of making a physical object by additive manufacturing. In the method a hardenable primary material is provided, the object is built up by successively hardening layers of the hardenable primary material, and the object is cleaned from excess material by moving the object and thereby generating a mass inertial force in the excess material. The invention facilitates the making of objects by additive manufacturing.
