Abstract
A method for forming a housing for a flow-conducting component includes forming at least two functional regions of the housing having different material properties using at least one of radiation-induced melting and solidification of a build material and a process gas jet. Each functional region of the housing may be generated from a different construction material, and at least one functional layer may be formed with a reduced weight structure such as a honeycomb structure.
