Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2018041395A1] The aim of the invention is to enable, in a particularly simple manner, the removal of a support structure (2) for a component (1) produced by additive manufacturing. This aim is achieved, according to the invention, in that the free end (9) of the support structure (2) is repeatedly deflected from a starting position (16) to a deflection position (17) by application of a bending torque, in such a way that the support structure (2) experiences working hardening due to plastic deformation at a defined location, in particular at the fixed end (8) of the support structure, until the support structure (2) fractures at said location during a further deflection.
