B900 active back exoskeleton: The right tool for noticeable back relief

The B900 active back exoskeleton is classified as a tool that actively helps to reduce strain during physically demanding tasks. Exoskeletons are not classified as personal protective equipment. exoIQ exoskeletons are not medical devices.

Very robust. It is suitable for industrial environments.

Less than 30 minutes.

The battery life with a 3.0 Ah battery is up to 6 hours, depending on the intensity of use.

The exoskeleton relieves up to 30 kilograms of load.

The electric motors provide greater support, making the relief for the lower back more effective than with purely passive systems, especially during strenuous tasks. Furthermore, active power assistance is easier to adapt to different work activities.

Textiles can be changed by the user. Other wear parts should be replaced by exoIQ if necessary. An annual service package is available, which can be very useful for heavy usage.

No, the materials are anti-static.

Yes, the B900 is designed for an operating temperature range of -10 °C to +40 °C.

Operating pedestrian-controlled industrial trucks that are pushed or pulled (e.g. electric pallet trucks) is straightforward with the B900 thanks to its freedom of movement. Industrial trucks with a stand-on platform can be used with the B900, depending on the size of the platform. This should be tested in advance as part of a risk assessment. As a general rule, the B900 should not be used in combination with industrial trucks that have a driver's seat.

In principle, yes. However, for safety reasons, we always recommend changing the battery while the device is not being worn.

Yes, the B900 leaves your arms and hands completely free. This makes the B900 compatible with most standard hand-held tools, such as screwdrivers or sanders. However, we recommend exercising particular caution when performing safety-critical tasks, such as working with exposed electrical wiring or cutting tools. The combination with personal protective equipment should be assessed on a case-by-case basis. Respiratory protection devices with a belt-mounted filter unit can generally be used without any issues.

Yes, the B900 relieves the lumbar spine and surrounding muscles when lifting and carrying heavy loads or working in a static forward-leaning position. It enables healthier working practices without overexertion and helps to prevent discomfort.

No. For bulk orders, colour selection is negotiable upon request.

No, as the active exoskeleton generates electromagnetic fields which could interfere with a pacemaker, we advise against its use.

No, the B900 is not suitable for use in hazardous areas and does not have ATEX or IECEx certification.

The B900 can be used outdoors in dry conditions. The materials used in the B900 are resistant to UV radiation. As an active exoskeleton, it is primarily designed for indoor use and can withstand typical dust levels or higher humidity found in industrial environments. The B900 is not protected against water ingress (e.g. rain) and should not be used in such conditions.

Yes, putting it on and taking it off is simple and can be done in under 30 seconds. A briefing from us and following our Quick Guide will help you perform the few simple steps quickly and correctly. There is no stand or mounting device, nor is one required.

No, the exoskeleton is designed to reduce strain, not to increase strength.

Yes, the exoskeleton offers full freedom of movement thanks to a patented mechanism in the back and a free-run mode for effortless walking. The design allows for natural movements such as bending, twisting, and climbing stairs.
