A component, in particular a stator or a rotor, of an electric motor, in which a layer structure is generated is produced using additive manufacturing, by: forming, via alternate additive production, a layer assembly having first layers and second layers each first layer including a filament containing plastic and metal, and each second layer including a filament containing plastic and ceramic; heating the layer assembly a first temperature, at which the plastic is removed from the layers; further heating the layer assembly (2) to a second temperature, whereby the metal of the layer is sintered and an electrically insulating ceramic layer is obtained from the layer.

In a three-dimensional printing method example, a liquid functional agent is selectively applied. The liquid functional agent includes an alloying agent. A metallic build material is applied. The liquid functional agent is selectively applied before the metallic build material, after the metallic build material, or both before and after the metallic build material. The liquid functional agent patterns the metallic build material to form a composite layer. At least some of the metallic build material is exposed to energy to melt the at least some of the metallic build material to form a layer. Upon contact or after energy exposure, the alloying agent and the build material alter a composition of the composite layer.

A method may include fused filament fabricating a fused filament fabricated component by delivering a softened filament to selected locations at or adjacent to a build surface. The softened filament may include a binder and a primary material. The binder is configured to release a secondary material upon heating at or above a conversion temperature. The method also may include heating the fused filament fabricated component to a temperature at or above the conversion temperature to sinter the primary material to form a sintered part and cause the binder to release the secondary material within the sintered part.
