Additive manufacturing method for producing a molded article from elastomer

A method for producing a molded article from a non-thermoplastic elastomer material, the method comprising:

• supplying the non-thermoplastic elastomer material to a processing unit;
• processing the non-thermoplastic elastomer material in the processing unit and generating a material flow of the non-thermoplastic elastomer material;
• conveying the non-thermoplastic elastomer material into an accumulator unit and generating a nominal pressure of the non-thermoplastic elastomer material in the accumulator unit;
• conveying the non-thermoplastic elastomer material to a molding unit, in which the non-thermoplastic elastomer material is selectively output to generate at least one layer of the molded article to be formed
• cross-linking the at least one layer of the molded article or of the entire molded article by means of a cross-linking unit, wherein the non-thermoplastic elastomer material is highly viscous, subsequent to the processing and prior to the cross-linking, has, a viscosity in the range of 100 to 1,000,000 Pa·s.
