Abstract
A calibration method for a system for powder bed-based generating of three-dimensional components by means of electromagnetic radiation, in particular such as a PBLS system, having a radiation source deflection unit and a raisable and lowerable carrier plate, above which a component is built, where, in order to calibrate the radiation source deflection unit, at least one virtual reference mark is used and, by means of a detector, a target-actual deviation between the virtual reference mark and a beam of the radiation source deflection unit is determined. An improved calibration method is achieved in that the at least one virtual reference mark is projected on a reference surface, which can travel vertically by means of the raisable and lowerable carrier plate, and independently of the vertical position thereof.
