Abstract: The present disclosure provides three-dimensional (3D) printing systems, apparatuses, methods and non-transitory computer readable media for the production of at least one desired 3D object. The 3D printer described herein comprises, inter alia, an opening that comprises a first side and a second side. A component of the 3D printing, such as a layer dispenser, may be conveyed from the first side of the opening to the second side of the opening (e.g., and vice versa) during the 3D printing. The opening may be closable. A closure of the opening may seclude the component during at least a portion of the 3D printing. Additional features relating to components of the 3D printing systems are described herein.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides three-dimensional (3D) printing processes, apparatuses, software, and systems for the production of at least one desired 3D object. The 3D printer system (e.g., comprising a processing chamber, build module, or an unpacking station) described herein may retain a desired (e.g., inert) atmosphere around the material bed and/or 3D object at multiple 3D printing stages. The 3D printer described herein comprises one or more build modules that may have a controller separate from the controller of the processing chamber. The 3D printer described herein comprises a platform that may be automatically constructed. The invention(s) described herein may allow the 3D printing process to occur for a long time without operator intervention and/or down time.
