Zusammenfassung:An additive manufacturing method and apparatus may implement a include a laser scanner with a movable-optic scanner including one or more optics, the movable-optic scanner configured move the one or more optics to scan the laser beam along a first path, and a solid-state scanner configured to scan the laser beam along a second path. The device may include a controller configured to control the laser scanner to operate the movable-optic scanner and the solid-state scanner to combine the first path and the second path to obtain a combined path during the additive manufacturing process.
