Daily strain? No need to put pressure on your back – BionicBack relieves strain and stabilises with every movement. Did you know that your back often has to work harder than you would like during your daily work routine? Whether in logistics, landscaping or retail – anyone who lifts, carries or bends forward on a daily basis is familiar with the strain. Back pain, muscle fatigue and poor posture are not the exception, but the rule. At the same time, many industries are struggling with a growing shortage of skilled workers – not least because physically demanding jobs are becoming increasingly unattractive. Health prevention in the workplace is therefore becoming a decisive factor in employee retention and productivity. 👉 One solution that is gaining more and more attention is exoskeletons. But what exactly are they – and do they really help? What are exoskeletons? Exoskeletons are external support structures that are worn on the body like a kind of portable frame. They provide targeted support for specific movements – e.g. lifting, bending forward or holding – thereby relieving strain on the muscles. This works in a similar way to a second, supporting muscle group. The aim: less strain, more stability – and therefore less pain. How do exoskeletons help? The basic principle is simple: the systems help where your muscles reach their limits. Depending on the application, energy is stored when you bend forward, for example, and released again when you straighten up. This reduces peak loads and protects your body. And don't worry: you still do the movement yourself – the exoskeleton just takes the "peaks" off your shoulders. Can such systems be tested? Yes! At hTRIUS, we offer a pilot phase with a trial package. This allows you to try out the exoskeleton directly in your working environment and find out how it supports you. Our sales team is on hand with expert advice to help you find the right solution for your work. Can exoskeletons cause muscle wasting (atrophy)? We hear this question often – and it's a valid one. Of course, muscles deteriorate when they are no longer used. But that's not what happens with exoskeletons. This is because the stresses and strains of everyday work are generally not a useful training stimulus, but simply too high. An exoskeleton like the BionicBack only takes the peak loads off you – not all the work. 👉 The balance between exertion and recovery is improved – your body remains active, but is not overworked. What happens to the forces – do they cause damage elsewhere? Good question! Yes, the force that is removed from one area must of course go somewhere else. But that's exactly why the design is crucial. With BionicBack, the forces are distributed specifically to more stable areas of the body – i.e. where your body can absorb them well. 💡Example: From the lumbar spine to the thighs or shoulders. The goal is always to relieve critical areas and support strong areas. Does the BionicBack have electrical components? How often does the system need to be recharged? No – the BionicBack is a passive exoskeleton. This means: no battery, no electronics, no charging required. It works purely mechanically – with elastic elements that store energy when bending and release it again when straightening up. Advantage: you remain flexible and independent and don't have to worry about charging times. How does BionicBack work? The BionicBack uses a simple but effective principle: 👉 When you bend down, energy is stored via an elastic element. 👉 When you stand up, this energy is released and supports your movement. 👉 If you remain in a bent position, the system takes over part of your body weight. This noticeably relieves your back – for hours on end. What can I use a BionicBack for? The BionicBack is suitable for use wherever you: regularly lift or carry things often work in a bent position have to stand in a static position for long periods of time move around between different workstations Typical industries: 🏗 Construction 🚛 Logistics 🏥 Care 🌳 Landscaping 🔧 Automotive Conclusion: relief you can wear – sensible and immediately noticeable ✅ Exoskeletons such as the BionicBack provide relief exactly where it is needed most in everyday life. ✅ They have a preventive effect without restricting freedom of movement. ✅ The system is lightweight, intuitive and requires no electronics whatsoever. ✅ Muscle work is not replaced – it is sensibly supported. ✅ Stress is distributed intelligently, not shifted. In short: BionicBack helps you work more healthily – without changing your job. Try it now with no obligation – your back will thank you:

Exoskeletons are increasingly being used in various areas - from industry to rehabilitation. But the question arises: are exoskeletons actually medical devices? Our BionicBack exoskeleton is used in many sectors - from logistics to care. When is an exoskeleton considered a medical device? The categorisation of an exoskeleton as a medical device depends primarily on its intended use. While some exoskeletons are developed exclusively for industrial applications, there are others that are used specifically to support people with physical disabilities or for rehabilitation - and therefore fulfil the criteria for a medical device. 1. Definition depending on the intended use Exoskeletons are classified as medical devices if they: ✔️ Specially developed for medical purposes (e.g. rehabilitation, support after injuries) ✔️ Provide targeted support for physical limitations One example of this is exoskeletons that help patients relearn movements after a stroke or spinal cord injury. 2. Duthorisation and proof of safety required Exoskeletons that are considered medical devices must undergo strict authorisation procedures. This includes proof of: ✔️ Safety for the user ✔️ Medical efficacy and benefit This process ensures that the product fulfils the health and regulatory requirements and that the desired support is actually provided. CE labelling in the EU In the EU, exoskeletons that are classified as medical devices require CE labelling. This labelling confirms that the product: ✔️ Complies with the European directives for medical devices ✔️ Meets the specified standards for safety and performance Our BionicBack bears the CE mark, which confirms its safety and quality - even though it is not classified as a medical device, but as a supportive aid for everyday working life. Not all exoskeletons are medical devices Exoskeletons developed for industrial or general physical support without a medical purpose are not considered medical devices. This includes, for example, exoskeletons used in logistics or the construction industry to reduce the physical strain of lifting and carrying. ➡️ Our BionicBack falls into this category - it is not used for medical treatment, but for the prevention of physical complaints and to improve working conditions. Regulatory differences depending on the country The categorisation of exoskeletons as a medical device also depends on the regulatory framework of the respective country. While CE labelling is decisive in the EU, the requirements of the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) apply in the USA, for example. How the BionicBack helps Although the BionicBack is not a medical device in the legal sense, it nevertheless has a preventive and supportive effect: Reduction of strain on muscles and joints Support for repetitive movements and lifting heavy loads Improve posture and relieve strain on the back The BionicBack contributes to the prevention of musculoskeletal disorders and to the long-term health of employees, particularly in the working environment. The most important points at a glance ✅ Exoskeletons are considered medical devices if they are used specifically for medical purposes. ✅ Medical devices require authorisation and CE marking. ✅ Exoskeletons for industry and physical support without a medical purpose are not medical devices. The BionicBack has CE labelling and has a preventive effect in everyday working life. ✅ The regulatory requirements vary depending on the country. Conclusion To cut a long story short: Some exoskeletons are medical devices, others are not. The decisive factor is the intended use. While medical exoskeletons are primarily used in rehabilitation, industrial exoskeletons such as our BionicBack specifically support physical performance and help to prevent overuse. Regardless of the classification, exoskeletons make a real difference - whether in rehabilitation or in the workplace.

Physical labour is no substitute for effective training Do you think your job keeps you fit? Many people who work physically are convinced: "I'm on my feet all day - that's enough of a workout!"  Sounds logical - but unfortunately this is a widespread misconception . 👉 In this article, you'll find out why physical labour is no substitute for effective training in most cases , what the difference is - and how an exoskeleton like the BionicBack can help you get through the day in good health without overloading yourself. 1. basics of effective training Targeted training sets conscious stimuli . This means: ✅ planned exertion ✅ Targeted intensity ✅ sufficient recovery The aim is to challenge the body in such a way that it becomes stronger and more resilient - and can regenerate sufficiently between sessions. Only then will positive adaptations such as muscle growth, increased endurance or better posture occur. 2. why work is not a workout What is specifically trained in the gym looks very different in everyday working life: 🔁 The same movements - over and over again 🕒 Often for hours on end, without real recovery breaks 📉 Not healthy exercise, but monotonous overload The problem : your body doesn't get the necessary training stimuli , but is constantly stressed and overloaded. Your back, joints and tendons in particular suffer from the constant strain - instead of building up muscles, the result is gradual wear and tear . Without sufficient relief, the body lacks the basis for healthy performance. Our answer: The BionicBack reduces precisely this strain - and thus creates the conditions for your body to work healthily in the long term. 3. what does the BionicBack do? The passive exoskeleton supports you in your day-to-day work - without a battery, motor or complex technology. It: ✅ stabilises your spine ✅ Promotes an ergonomic posture ✅ Reduces strain when lifting and bending ✅ noticeably reduces muscle fatigue Important : The BionicBack does not replace training - but it does ensure that you still have the strength to move after work . Without back pain. Without overloading. 4. why you should train despite (or precisely because of) this Anyone who works physically needs balanced training - not constant lifting on the job. A good programme includes: 🏋️ Strength - for a stable musculature 🚶 Endurance - for performance in everyday life 🤸 Flexibility & mobility - against tension 📈 Progression - i.e. increasing training stimuli This is the only way to stay healthy and efficient in the long term - at work and in everyday life. Conclusion Physical work is strenuous - but not training One-sided strain without regeneration overstrains your body The BionicBack exoskeleton helps you to reduce the strain Only those who train become stronger - work alone is not enough Health needs targeted exercise, conscious recovery and smart support What do you think about it? 💬 Do you work physically and still often feel exhausted? Here are the facts again as a YouTube video: 💬 If you have any further questions, please take a look at our other blog posts:

Our BionicBack Exoskelett The BionicBack is more than just an exoskeleton - it is an innovative solution that takes nature as its model to provide targeted relief for the human body. In this article, you'll find out what's behind the name, how the system works and why it's so effective. What does "BionicBack" actually mean? The name "BionicBack" was chosen deliberately. It is made up of the terms "Bionic" (bionic) and "Back" (back). Both elements reflect what it is all about: a technical system inspired by the human body - or more precisely, the spine. Bionics is a discipline that looks at the structures, processes and design principles of nature and transfers them to technology. The term exoskeleton also originally comes from nature - from insects or crustaceans, for example, whose external support structure provides protection and support for movement. Our BionicBack follows this principle: the back section is modeled on the human back. The name therefore stands for a "bionic back" - a system that supports you during physically demanding activities. Who is the BionicBack made for and what is it used for? The BionicBack exoskeleton is a passive support system that provides noticeable relief during activities such as lifting, bending or prolonged bending forward. It intervenes as soon as you bend forward or pick something up: Dynamically, during movement (e.g. when picking up a heavy object) Statically, when you work in a bent-forward position for a long time (e.g. over a pallet cage) . How does a passive exoskeleton work? The BionicBack is a so-called passive exoskeleton. This means that it works without electrical energy or motors. Instead, it uses mechanical energy storage - such as elastic elements that are put under tension when bent. This stored energy can: support part of the body weight when holding a bent forward position, support the patient when straightening up by reinforcing the movement with its own energy. The result: less muscle strain, less risk of fatigue and more ergonomic, healthier working. Conclusion: Why the BionicBack exoskeleton? Let's summarize: ✅ The BionicBack is an ergonomic aid inspired by the human back ✅ It is a passive exoskeleton - lightweight, current-free, low-maintenance ✅ It has been scientifically tested and provides noticeable relief ✅ The system is lightweight, convenient and easy to integrate - ideal for use in logistics, production and trade 👉 Find out more now and discover the BionicBack:

"Back pain again..." - a sentence you hear far too often. Whether on the construction site, in assembly or in the warehouse: back problems have long been part of everyday life for many employees. But what if there was a solution that could noticeably relieve back pain - without medication or constant physiotherapy training? Around 65% of back pain affects the lumbar spine - followed by the cervical spine (23%) and thoracic spine (12%)* *rough guide values Understanding back pain - and finally doing something about it Back pain often develops gradually.
