Abstract

A method may of additively manufacturing a three-dimensional object includes determining a plurality of scanning segments for a build plane and/or for one or more object layers respectively corresponding to one or more regions of a powder bed defining the build plane, and determining an irradiation vector for irradiating the scanning segments with an energy beam. The irradiation vector determined for the respective scanning segments may include a hatching vector and/or a plurality of scanning vectors defining the hatching vector. The hatching vector and/or the scanning vectors defining the hatching vector may be oriented away from a normal point on the build plane. The method may include outputting an irradiation control command to an energy beam system based on the scanning segments and/or the irradiation vector for irradiating the scanning segments.
