Abstract

A method for manufacturing a component by stacking layers of material that are each obtained by depositing and melting, continuously, a material by virtue of an energy beam of which at least one feature is controlled by a control current intensity. The manufacturing method includes a step of monitoring the control current intensity, a step of comparing the monitored control current intensity with a given threshold and a step of stopping the manufacturing method when the control current intensity is above the given threshold. This momentary stopping of the method makes it possible to significantly reduce the risks of energy runaway liable to destroy the deposited material bead and the neighboring structure.
