Abstract

A method for the layered production of a green body from powdery or paste-like material, including cutting elements based on three-dimensional data of the green body, the green body being segmented in a building direction into N (N≥2) consecutive cylindrical cross-sectional areas made up of a two-dimensional cross-sectional surface perpendicular to the building direction and a layer thickness in parallel to the building direction, including the method steps: the cross-sectional areas of the green body are each divided into material areas, and setting areas, in which the cutting elements are situated; the material areas in the building direction are applied to a building plane situated perpendicularly to the building direction, until at least one cavity formed by one setting area or by multiple consecutive setting areas in the building direction, has the necessary insert height for placing the cutting elements; and at least one cutting element is placed into the cavities having the necessary insert height for placing the cutting elements.
