Product highlights

• Makes it easy for you.

  The ExoActive exoskeleton supports you under your arms to take the effort out of working on walls or ceilings. The active system with its powerful 18V battery provides extrapolated power to give you the exact support you need during tiring overhead work.

• Targeted support.

  Whether from the waist up, at chest height or overhead, you can set where you would like support and the level in a matter of seconds. This way, the ExoActive gives you targeted support precisely where it's needed.

• Fits like a glove.

  As easy to put on as a rucksack, can be quickly individually adapted to your height and ergonomics that are perfectly tailored to you. Once you've gotten used to it, you won't want to start working on a wall or ceiling without the ExoActive ever again.

Relief when working overhead

The support provided by the ExoActive for overhead work makes it easier to avoid overexertion. The ExoActive reduces the load on the front of your shoulder muscles by up to 30%*. This means that work feels up to one third easier. (*The data has been determined through application tests and may vary under deviating conditions.)

Easy to put on and individually adjustable

The ExoActive is as easy to put on as a rucksack. Together with the harness system, it can be adapted to your individual height quickly and simply.

Provides up to 5 kg of support

The ExoActive provides each underarm with an added boost of up to 50 N – equal to approx. 5 kg. By way of comparison, the PLANEX LHS 2 225 EQI long-reach sander weighs 4.7 kg, so it feels almost as light as a feather.

Active support – easy to control

Owing to the fact that applications in trade vary, the level of support provided by the ExoActive can be individually adjusted. You can set the support you need at any given moment by turning the controller.

Main applications

• Relief when working in front of the chest and overhead – with up to 5 kg/50 N support force per arm
• Offers support and relief when it comes to applications with tools, but also during manual assembly or activities with hand tools
• With the battery pack capacity of 4.0 Ah, the runtime is between 1.5 and 5 h – depending on application and especially the movement dynamics
