Abstract
A method of manufacturing a hard-to-weld material by a beam-assisted additive manufacturing process is presented. The method includes depositing a first layer for the material onto the substrate, the first layer including a major fraction of a base material for the component and a minor fraction of a solder, depositing a second layer of the base material for the component and a thermal treatment of the layer arrangement. The thermal treatment includes a first thermal cycle at a first temperature above 1200° C. for a duration of more than 3 hours, a subsequent second thermal cycle at a second temperature above 1000° C. for more than 2 hours, and a subsequent third thermal cycle and a third temperature above 700° C. for more than 12 hours. A manufactured component is also presented.
