Abstract

A procedure for calibration of at least one scanning system of a laser sinter or laser melt facility can be carried out in a short time, can take place automatically, and thereby can be carried out before each individual construction process. The procedure may include generation of at least one line pattern through at least one scanning system on a surface at the level of a construction field.
