The present invention relates to a method for the layered additive manufacturing of shaped bodies consisting of slices of a processing layer, the method comprising the steps of producing a layer of slurry comprising a binder, a dispersion medium and particles Filling; curing said slurry layer; directing electromagnetic radiation to the cured layer to treat it by degreasing and/or sintering, repeating the above steps to continuously build up shaped bodies, characterized in that the slurry layer is produced by laser-induced forward direction Transfer (LIFT) process that utilizes a laser to direct laser beam pulses on a coating of slurry on a carrier to transfer slurry droplets to the receptor surface to create the slurry layer, which is then The slurry layer is further processed by the curing, degreasing and/or sintering steps described above. |
