Darwing Back

Name: Darwing Back
Brand: Darwing

Darwing Back is a light, soft back exoskeleton with air chambers in the lower back, for bending and lifting.

Darwing Back is a soft back exoskeleton without motor or battery, developed by the Japanese company Daiya Industry. Air chambers in the lower back are inflated by the wearer with a hand pump. The light pressure helps keep the back straight when bending and lifting, for example in a squat movement. The air is released with a lever on the chest. The suit is put on and taken off with buckles. According to Darwing, the BS02 model weighs about 900 grams. Darwing names logistics, construction, agriculture and care as application areas. In the Netherlands, Pre-Tec from Nijverdal supplies the Darwing Back, with trials on the work floor and training for employees.
