    Abstract: Methods of treating fused build material in an additive manufacturing system are described. The method includes a first treatment process comprising: depositing unfused build material over the fused build material in a working area of the additive manufacturing system, thereby providing a first build material layer; and supplying energy from a first energy source to the first build material layer to heat but substantially not fuse the unfused build material of the first build material layer. The method also includes a second treatment process comprising: depositing unfused build material over the first build material layer in the working area, thereby providing a second build material layer; and supplying energy from a second energy source to the second build material layer to heat but substantially not fuse the unfused build material of the first and second build material layers.

    Abstract: An example method includes obtaining a geometric compensation profile characterising a relationship between a location of an object within a first fabrication volume having a first depth of build material and a geometrical compensation to be applied to a model of said object. The method further includes determining that a first object is to be generated in a first build operation having a second fabrication volume which has a second depth. The method may further include determining a geometrical compensation to be applied to a model of the first object by: determining a first offset of the first object from the top of the second fabrication volume; identifying the geometrical compensation value associated with a location having the first offset from the top of the first fabrication volume; and determining the compensation to be applied to the model of the first object based on the identified geometrical compensation value.
