Zusammenfassung:A method for determining residual stresses of a component (14), in particular a component of an aircraft engine, while it is being manufactured by an additive manufacturing process. The method includes the following steps: creating at least one local melt pool (26) in a surface (24) of the component (14) to be manufactured after a predetermined portion of the component is completed; optically detecting surface distortions and/or elongations occurring at least in a region around the created melt pool (26); and determining the residual stresses of the component (14) which are present at least in the region around the created melt pool (26) based on the optically detected surface distortions and/or elongations. Further an apparatus for determining residual stresses of a component (14) while it is being manufactured by an additive manufacturing process is provided.
