Industrial Work

Industrial wearable robot · logistics · construction · manufacturing

Loading at distribution centers, overhead assembly on manufacturing lines and carrying materials on construction sites all build up strain on specific parts of the body. Bionic Suit, a 3rd-generation textile wearable robot, is designed to be comfortable to wear and move in on site. Integrated versions built into workwear and safety vests can also be discussed.

40%+ Less lower-back muscle activity — evaluation with healthy adult workers

Example application scenes

Challenges on Site

  • Repetitive lifting in logistics and construction builds up strain on the lower back
  • Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) account for a significant share of industrial accidents
  • Heavy or uncomfortable assist equipment is hard to keep wearing on site
  • Equipment that obstructs work movement goes unused no matter how capable it is

The SARTEXO Solution
