German Bionic Apogee (6th Generation)
Built leaner, lighter and more comfortable than ever before, Apogee is German Bionic’s latest wearable tool that provides dual-support for the back and legs for activities requiring regular, heavy lifts.
Lightweight and comfortable with no disruption to natural movements or workflows German Bionic has years of experience in real-world commercial use of our exoskeleton technologies. Working closely with customers and utilizing connectivity, German Bionic obtains user feedback and data to accelerate R&D and improve each iteration.
With access to a suite of software platforms, the wearable exoskeleton tools provide users and organizations real-time insights to identify risks, monitor impact, and optimize workplace safety and efficiency.
Reduction in injury and fatigue
With smart, wearable technologies make a significant, quantifiable contribution towards preventing musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs), which are the leading cause of disabilities worldwide. Artificial Intelligence Individualize each device to the particular needs and characteristics of the wearer
Assessing the situation
The Apogee is engineered to empower your workforce. Apogee focuses on supporting the lower back especially for lifting tasks.
How do you get the most out of the exoskeleton? − Objects should weigh 17 lbs or more − Objects should be lifted or lowered down between floor and chest height, or vice versa − The movements should happen frequently, approx. 30-60 times an hour If you are not quite sure or simply want our expertise, we would appreciate a video or photos of the use case in question.
Exoskeleton Statistics
Statistically, 30% of incidents resulting in days away from work were due to ergonomic-related injuries. Occupational exoskeletons can decrease the number of musculoskeletal disorders by supporting a posture or movement either mechanically (passive exoskeletons) or with external power (active exoskeletons). German Bionic has seen an average of 25% reduction in sick days following the implementation of exoskeleton tools in an organization.
About German Bionic
German Bionic is a smart wearable tools and safety analytics company that produces active, connected exoskeletons that help to protect workers from back injury when they are performing frequent, heavy lifts. Utilizing robotic technologies, this active power suit takes the pressure off of the lower back and provides support for lifting and lowering heavy loads, as well as activities that require prolonged leaning. Our data insight platforms utilize bio telematic data collected by our exoskeletons to provide organizations with dashboards to analyze their safety practices and identify risk areas to address.
