Abstract:
Apparatus (1) for additively manufacturing three-dimensional objects by means of successive layerwise selective irradiation and consolidation of layers (2) of a powdered build material (3) which can be consolidated by means of an energy beam (4), the apparatus (1) comprising: an irradiation device (8) configured to generate at least a first and a second energy beam (4, 9), whereby the second energy (9) beam follows the path of the first energy beam (4) with a defined local and/or time offset; a detection device (11) configured to detect radiation (12) emitted from a portion of a layer (2) of powdered build material (3) which was selectively irradiated by the first energy beam (4), an evaluation device (14) configured to evaluate detected radiation (12) emitted from a portion of a layer (2) of powdered build (3) material which was selectively irradiated by the first energy beam (4).

Claim (Index 7):
Apparatus according to  claim 6 , further comprising a control device ( 23 ) configured to control operation of the irradiation device ( 8 ), the control device ( 23 ) being configured to control operation of the irradiation device ( 8 ) on basis of an evaluation information determined by the evaluation device ( 14 ).
