Abstract

The present disclosure describes three-dimensional (3D) printing apparatuses and systems for producing 3D objects. Described herein are printing apparatuses and systems that are configured to facilitate control of debris within an enclosure where one or more printing operations are performed. Printing apparatuses and systems of the present disclosure may each have one or more components, such as, for example, component(s) that are configured to facilitate gas flow trajectories (e.g., turbulent movement) within an enclosure in which a 3D object is printed.
