Description

The exoIQ B900 is an electric back-support exoskeleton developed for industrial work environments where employees perform lifting, carrying, or forward-leaning tasks. It is intended to reduce strain on the lower back muscles, the lumbar spine, and the intervertebral discs rather than to increase the wearer’s maximum lifting capacity.

The B900 uses powered assistance with preset support modes, four onboard preset memory slots, and tool-free adjustment for different users. The device is compatible with Festool 18 V BP 18 Li system batteries, has a stated runtime of up to 6 hours with a 3.0 Ah battery depending on work dynamics, and weighs 5.6 kg (12.3 lb) excluding the battery. It is adjustable for users from 1.65 to 2.00 m (5 ft 5 in to 6 ft 7 in).
