Claim 8:
9. An additive manufacturing system, comprising:
an energy beam system; and
a control system comprising an irradiation controller;
wherein the irradiation controller comprises a control module configured to perform a method of controlling one or more irradiation parameters of the energy beam system, the method comprising:
determining an irradiation setting using an irradiation control model, wherein the irradiation control model is configured to determine the irradiation setting based at least in part on a power density factor and/or an irradiation vector factor;
outputting an irradiation control command to the energy beam system based at least in part on the irradiation setting, wherein the irradiation control command is configured to change one or more irradiation parameters for additively manufacturing a three-dimensional object; and
directing an energy beam onto a build plane according to a scanning vector based at least in part on the irradiation control command, wherein the power density factor and/or the irradiation vector factor are based at least in part on a position of a beam spot from the energy beam relative to a normal point on the build plane.
