Exoskeleton: less load, same shift
Mechanical assistance device that reduces physical load during sweeping, loading and unloading. Tested for a full shift in real collection operations.
The problem
Repetitive tasks involving intense physical effort, such as waste collection or street sweeping, place a heavy ergonomic load on workers. This can lead to musculoskeletal injuries over the medium and long term, affecting both worker health and operational efficiency.
How it works
The exoskeleton is a mechanical assistance device worn on the operator’s body. It provides support and reduces physical load during sweeping, loading and manual unloading tasks. It has been tested over full waste-collection shifts, proving effective at reducing fatigue and preventing injury.
Who it's for
Urban services, waste collection, street cleaning and maintenance operators. Companies looking to improve worker ergonomics and prevent sick leave caused by physical overexertion.
