Presentation
Even easier to use than other exoskeletons in the HAPO range, equip themselves with it is faster and it requires no manipulation to reach work immediately. At the same time light and discreet, the HAPO SD has been designed to reduce lumbar efforts and preserve intervertebral discs. In fine, HAPO SD is an effective solution to reduce the risk of Musculo-Skeletal Disorders (MSD) for complete dynamic bending tasks.
For who?
As with HAPO, HAPO SD is not limited to a trade but rather to a type of tasks requiring a large bending of the trunk and can thus be used for ground work. All materials have been chosen so that they can use HAPO SD both outdoors and indoors.
As a result, HAPO can be found in many sectors and professions (non-exhaustive list)
Construction | logistics | industry | farming | medical
How?
The HAPO works by partially redirecting the efforts of the top of the trunk (pectoral support) to the thighs using composite springs. The back belt allows, for its part, a maintenance without lumbar restraint.
Laboratory tests showed that, compared to an exoskeleton-free situation, the HAPO SD allowed for a reduction of approximately -11% of the back muscles.
