Skelex 360

Description

Skelex 360 reduces the strain on workers performing repetitive work, such as in automotive assembly. The exoskeleton can be worn like a backpack and provides up to 4 kg of support per arm without any motors, but with an intelligent carbon-fibre structure – the FlexFrame – which stores and releases energy in an intelligent manner to compensate for gravity. It is individually adjustable and allows biological movement both for the arms and the torso.

Statement of the jury

The Exoskelett Skelex 360 features labour-saving relief for work done overhead without the need for motors. The design, inspired by biomechanics and highly progressive in style, perfectly embodies the claim to power combined with freedom of movement, ergonomics and lightness. A precisely designed masterpiece in the field of human support and with that, an excellent example for smart bionic design.
