Abstract

In one example, a control process for an additive manufacturing machine includes displacing a platform, measuring the actual displacement of the platform, determining that the actual displacement varies from a nominal displacement, and determining an amount of an agent to be applied to build material layered on the displaced platform based on the determined variation.
