Abstract

See full text

A device for an adjustment of a heater control in an additive manufacturing device, in which a heater control regulates the heating of an applied building material layer by means of a heating device (17) up to a work temperature (TA) comprises:

    a nominal parameter provision unit (201) designed such that it provides at least one nominal parameter value, meaning the setpoint of a controlled variable and/or its change with time and/or the setpoint of a heater parameter and/or its change with time,an actual parameter detection unit (202) designed such that it is able to detect for at least one of the nominal parameter values the corresponding actual parameter value in the heater control or in the additive manufacturing device, wherein an actual parameter value is the actual value of a controlled variable and/or the actual value of its change with time and/or the actual value of a heater parameter and/or the actual value of its change with time, anda control change unit (203) that automatically changes at least one control parameter value, if a predefined difference between the nominal parameter value and its corresponding actual parameter value is exceeded.
