Abstract
An additive manufacturing apparatus includes: a machining head; a beam nozzle through which a beam emitted from the machining head passes; a material feed unit that feeds a material to a workpiece; a first drive unit that moves a tip portion of the material relative to the workpiece; a second drive unit that moves the beam in a direction included in a reference plane perpendicular to a central axis of the beam nozzle; and a controller that determines, on the basis of a direction of travel, a direction of the movement of the beam, the direction of travel being included in the reference plane, the direction of travel being a direction in which the tip portion travels relative to the workpiece, and controls the first and second drive units such that the beam is movable in a manner different from movement of the tip portion relative to the workpiece.
