Abstract
A device for the making of a three-dimensional object by means of layer by layer consolidation of a powderlike construction material by electromagnetic radiation or particle beam has a control unit that controls an irradiation device such that the powder particles of the construction material are bonded together at the sites where the radiation impinges on the construction material. A selective heating device is designed so that any given partial surface of the construction field can be heated before and/or after to a plateau temperature, which is significantly higher than the temperature of at least a portion of the construction field outside the partial surface. The control unit actuates the selective heating device such that the partial surface has a predefined minimum distance from the edge of the construction field.
