Edge

The Skelex Edge is a passive back-support exoskeleton for work that involves frequent bending, kneeling, leaning forward, and lifting at low heights. It is intended to reduce lower-back strain while preserving freedom of movement, and current product materials describe configurable thigh or knee anchoring depending on the task. It differs from some of its counterparts in that the leg straps extend below the knees.

Description

The Skelex Edge is a workplace / industrial lower-back support wearable developed by Skelex for users in physically demanding jobs. Official product materials position it for repetitive forward-flexed tasks and other low-posture work, with emphasis on supporting the lower back, helping maintain posture, and reducing upper-body overuse during daily tasks.

The device uses an upper-body harness, hammock, and elastic elements rather than batteries or powered actuation, and Skelex lists it as one-size-fits-all. Current materials also describe two anchoring configurations: thigh anchor for more mobile tasks and knee anchor for more fixed postures, and provide formal documentation, a research paper download, a CE declaration, and multilingual instruction videos.

Specifications:

  • Weight: 0.95 kg (2.1 lb).
  • Meant to offload the spine by 10%
  • Potential to reduce back muscle loading by 30%

  • One-size fits all
  • Certifications / Third-Party Testing: CE documentation; ISO 12402 buckles.
  • Application(s): Lower-back support for bending, kneeling, leaning forward, and lifting from / to floor level.
