Title:

ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING METHOD AND SYSTEM WITH FIBER REINFORCEMENT

Document Type and Number:

Japanese Patent JP2016014188

Kind Code:

A

Abstract:

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an additive manufacturing method and a system with fiber reinforcement.SOLUTION: An additive manufacturing method for fabricating a fiber-reinforced composite object includes providing at least a first layer of powder material, disposing a fiber material adjacently to the at least first layer of powder material to form a fiber reinforcement layer, and applying a laser energy to the at least first layer of powder material so as to fuse the powder material into at least a first laser fused material layer adjacent to the fiber reinforcement layer of the fiber-reinforced composite object.
