Claim 0:
1. An additive manufacturing method for a component, the component being produced layerwise by fused filament fabrication, the method comprising:
a) magnetizing a substrate plate;
b) depositing at least one first layer of the component on the substrate plate by the fused filament fabrication, the at least one first layer comprising a first substance that contains magnetic material such that the at least one first layer is magnetically attracted by the substrate plate;
c) depositing at least one further layer of the component onto the at least one first layer by the fused filament fabrication, the at least one further layer comprising a second substance; and
d) demagnetizing the substrate plate.
