Abstract
The present invention concerns a device 1 for the additive manufacture of a three-dimensional object (2) by successive, layered, selective illumination and associated solidification of built material layers formed in a construction plane (11) of a built material (3) that can be solidified by means of at least one energy beam (4), comprising an illumination device (9) which comprises at least one illumination element (10) to generate an energy beam (4) directed to the construction plane (11) for the selective illumination of a built material layer that is to be solidified, wherein at least the one illumination element (10) is movably supported by means of a magnetic moving and mounting device (12) in at least one degree of freedom relative to the construction plane (11).
