Shoulder Exoskeletons for Industry & Crafts

A construction manager, a workshop manager, a maintenance worker: They all have one thing in common – their teams perform overhead work every day. This leads to frequent strain in the shoulders and neck. Pain, muscle tension, and in the worst case, work-related absences are the result. What has previously been managed with breaks, ergonomic training, or job rotation can now be specifically and permanently improved: with shoulder exoskeletons.

Advantages of our exoskeletons for the shoulders


Muscle relief with measurable results

Studies from Fraunhofer IPA show: Shoulder exoskeletons reduce muscle activity in the shoulder area during overhead work by up to 40%. The relief not only acts preventively against complaints but also increases the concentration and performance of employees.

Quick amortization, clear ROI

An exoskeleton can pay for itself within 6–12 months – through fewer sick days, less overtime, and higher process efficiency.

Fewer absences, higher availability

Musculoskeletal disorders cause around €22.7 billion in value creation loss in Germany each year. Pilot projects show: Companies using exoskeletons report up to 30% fewer work-related absences in affected activities.
