Introducing Artus
The exoskeleton that empowers you to work safer, stronger, and with great confidence
Comfort & Protection
Traditionally, workplace safety and protection came at the expense of comfort and usability—until now.
ARTUS changes the game in ergonomic support and finger exoskeletons by providing exceptional hand protection without compromising dexterity or comfort. Designed as a personal protective equipment (PPE) solution, ARTUS enhances workplace safety by protecting against joint stress, hand injury, and muscle strain, ensuring that every worker’s health and safety at work is prioritized.
Advantages of ARTUS
Perfect Fit: Achieved through Size Card & Size Wizard technologies, ensuring precise sizing for each worker's hand for optimal comfort and protection.
Solid Protection: Shields hands from sharp edges and crush injuries, designed to withstand forces up to 5kg on the fingertips.
Force Redistribution: Transfers forces through the exoskeleton, preventing both short- and long-term injuries.
Adaptable Design: Suitable for various industrial applications, providing versatility in demanding environments.
Certified PPE: Tested and certified as personal protective equipment (PPE), meeting stringent safety regulations
How ARTUS Works: Inside the Innovation
The DigiLock technology in ARTUS prevents joint overextension by dynamically stiffening finger joints only when needed, reducing repetitive motion injuries and strain. In manufacturing and assembly lines, where repetitive tasks like tool handling and machine operation cause joint fatigue, DigiLock stabilizes joints without restricting natural movement. This innovative solution enhances comfort, reduces workplace injuries, and boosts productivity in demanding environments.

When using ARTUS, the DigiSkin technology ensures unmatched tactile sensitivity, allowing workers to perform delicate tasks with precision and protection. In automotive manufacturing, it supports wiring assembly, component installation, and system calibration by preserving a natural sense of touch while safeguarding hands from cuts and abrasions.This advanced ergonomic solution ensures that workers can maintain both safety and accuracy, making ARTUS an essential tool for businesses focused on high-performance and workplace safety.

With the SizeWizard technology, ARTUS is tailored to each worker's hand dimensions, ensuring both comfort and protection. This precision fit prevents injuries from repetitive tasks or excessive force while supporting hands in various industrial applications. Its ergonomic design reduces the likelihood of carpal tunnel, tendon strain, and muscle fatigue, enhancing safety and productivity.
Certified by OSHA and EU-OSHA, ARTUS goes beyond protective gear—it’s a comprehensive solution for the long-term well-being of your workforce.
