Test for the Hilti Exo-S L- and

The Exo-S arm has performed very well in tests. Studies have shown that the Hilti Exo S has reduced:

31% of the muscle activity in the left arm in the corneal region;

25% of the muscle activity in the left arm in the area of the clavicle;

35% of muscle activity in the right arm, in the coracoid region.

There is also a 5% increase in the number of screws placed precisely thanks to the Hilti Exo-S arm. As a result, work time is also increased. During work, the Hilti Exo-S transfers the weight from the arms to the hips. This mechanism is effective thanks to an integrated cable system. The cables extend along the back before connecting to the harness around the waist. Thus, as soon as you raise your arms, the cables are automatically activated and distribute the weight, reducing the pressure on your shoulders and arms.During a one-day test, a significant reduction in perceived fatigue in the upper limbs (shoulders and arms) was observed at the end of the day. In summary, the Hilti Exo-S has proven its worth. Wearing this device significantly reduces fatigue, giving you the feeling of gaining extra strength and performing repetitive tasks without discomfort or fatigue. Is the right for you?
