Methods of additively manufacturing a manufactured component, additive manufacturing systems that perform the methods, and storage media that directs additive manufacturing systems to perform the methods

A method of additively manufacturing a manufactured component utilizing an additive manufacturing system, the method comprising:

• supplying a feedstock material along a scan path of the additive manufacturing system;
• delivering, from an energy source of the additive manufacturing system and to an addition location along the scan path, an amount of energy sufficient to form a melt pool of the feedstock material at the addition location;
• during the delivering the amount of energy, moving the addition location along the scan path to move the melt pool along the scan path and define a consolidated material track from the feedstock material;
• determining that the melt pool is within a threshold proximity of a merge region of the manufactured component;
• and
• responsive to the determining that the melt pool is within the threshold proximity of the merge region, adjusting a process parameter value of the additive manufacturing system from a process parameter pre-merge-region value to a process parameter merge-region value that differs from the process parameter pre-merge-region value.
