Abstract
A method for layer-wise additive manufacturing of a shaped body made up of slices of processed layers, including the steps: A laser induced forward transfer (LIFT) process utilizing a laser to direct laser beam pulses acts on a coating of slurry on a carrier to transfer droplets of slurry to a receptor surface to create the slurry layer which is then processed further by above-mentioned steps of solidifying, and debinding and/or sintering.
