Zusammenfassung:	The present application relates to a method of producing an article by additive manufacturing including the steps of predicting regions of stress in the article, identifying an optimal build orientation for the article and dispensing a first powder and/or a second powder to form the article. The first and second powders are of the same type of powder and have been recycled to different extents and the orientation of the build is optimised so that reduced quantities of the powder which has not been recycled or which has been recycled to a lesser extent is dispensed during the build.
