The Alveo3D story

Created by passionate makers

C

Alveo3D is a brand owned by FLEXEE SYSTEM

Start in 2018

The Alveo3D project started in 2018, in Chambéry, in the French Alpes.

Working in the field of electrical appliances before becoming Alveo3D, additive manufacturing was part of the everyday tools of the FLEXEE SYSTEM team. Following numerous research on 3D printing emissions, the founding team set out to build a prototype filter dedicated to FDM 3D printing.

The launch

After several months of development, the www.alveo3d.com store was launched in February 2019 with the AlveoONE and AlveoONE-R models.

In 3 years, and despite the worldwide pandemic, the range has been expanded and professionalized. To become today the reference in filtration for desktop 3D printers.

Lucas

– Management and analysis –

Lucas studied science and business management. Since his formation in geomatics and local development, he has been very sensitive to health matters and became a professional firefighter. Today, as CEO of Alveo3D, he uses his analytical skills to meet the specific demands of the industry.

Victor

– Industrial air purifier designer –

After international training, and before joining the Alveo3D adventure, Victor worked for almost a year in a design agency specializing in electrical appliances and air purification. He has learned to supervise product design: from the identification of the demand to the manufacture. And so, via the study, the use, the ideas and suggestions, the 3D modelling, and the sourcing from foreign subcontractors.

Laurent

– Electronics and Programming –

Laurent is a DUT GEII graduate but also an autodidact, passionate about electronic and computer development. He is the technical cornerstone of Alveo3D, able to design some of the tools needed to produce Alveo3D products. He created the compact filtration measurement bench dedicated to 3D printing, a unique tool capable of measuring filtration efficiency.

The know-how

Products and services

We offer a complete range of products and services dedicated to safety in polymer additive manufacturing. With a range of enclosures for FDM and resin 3D printers and very high-efficiency air filtration systems. Our services include the manufacture of custom enclosures, the design and production of custom filters and filtration systems, and the testing of the efficiency of our filtration solutions.

Analysis, tests, and certifications

Measuring bench

The Alveo3D measuring bench is a unique and essential tool to guarantee the efficiency of the different filtration systems available. Today, only the EN1822 norm certifies filtration quality. However, this certification is not adequate, because it guarantees an efficiency rate on particles around 300 nm, whereas 3D printing emits particles mainly from 10 to 100 nm. The Alveo3D measurement bench allows us to extend the tests and obtain filtration efficiency over a wide range going from 7 to 5,000 nm.

Network of experts

Alveo3D Partners

Alveo3D became specialized in the safety and filtration of polymer additive manufacturing, by developing its network of collaborators. Thanks to our proximity to several risk study centers such as INRS in France or BFR in Germany, we keep ourselves informed of the latest recommendations and techniques in terms of risk management.

Our geographical location allows us to have privileged contacts with local actors specialized in particle studies such as the Nano-safety platform of Liten based at CEA Grenoble.

And many other partners in France and abroad in order to supply and assemble filtration systems with the highest qualification.
