Support Arrangement for Additive Manufacturing, Additive Manufacturing Device and Method of Producing Three-Dimensional Object

A method of producing a three-dimensional object, the method comprising:

• providing a support arrangement having a base structure and a plurality of elongated support elements for supporting the three-dimensional object, each support element having a longitudinal axis and being independently movable relative to the base structure along the associated longitudinal axis;
• forming the three-dimensional object on the support elements by means of additive manufacturing in an additive manufacturing process;
• moving one or more of the support elements along the associated longitudinal axis during the additive manufacturing process;
• and
• rotating at least one of the support elements about the associated longitudinal axis.
