A laser beam is irradiated onto material powder on a manufacturing table to solidify the material powder and form a solidified layer. The material powder is further deposited on the solidified layer and the laser beam is irradiated onto one part of the material powder to solidify the material powder. They are repeated to manufacture a manufactured object. An irradiation output value of the laser beam is determined based on measurement information regarding a deposition surface before depositing the material powder or regarding a surface state of the material powder after deposition that is acquired by a camera. Alternatively, the aforementioned irradiation output value is determined based on parity information regarding a number of solidified layers that were already solidified by irradiation of the energy beam, or determined in accordance with an irradiation output value used when solidifying a solidified layer solidified prior to deposition of the deposited material powder.

The present invention discloses an artificial graphite flake manufacturing method, which uses the PI (polyimide) films as the material; via a stacking step, a first heating step and a second heating step, the PI films are processed to form the artificial graphite flakes so as to increase the lubrication and the hardness, improve the heat conduction for balancing temperature increase and better the smoothness; in addition, via a perforation step, a hole structure is formed on the artificial graphite flakes so as to increase the heat diffusion area and the air permeability of the artificial graphite flakes, and then increase the defect-free rate and the smoothness thereof.
