Zusammenfassung:	A method of producing engineered-components using an additive manufacturing process includes the steps of, providing a build-platform, forming a first engineered-component, forming support-structures, forming a second engineered-component, and removing the support-structures. The step of providing a build-platform includes providing a build-platform on which to form an engineered-component. The step of forming a first engineered-component includes depositing a first plurality of layers of a material onto the build-platform and solidifying the first plurality of layers. The step of forming support-structures includes forming a plurality of support-structures by depositing a second plurality of layers of the material onto the build-platform and solidifying the second plurality of layers. The step of forming a second engineered-component includes depositing a third plurality of layers of the material onto the plurality of support-structures and solidifying the third plurality of layers. The step of removing the support-structures includes removing the support-structures from the second engineered-component.
