The Hapo Up

Shoulder Relief for Overhead Tasks

The HAPO UP is designed to relieve shoulder strain and reduce the risk of developing Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs). It is particularly suited for tasks requiring an "arms in the air" posture, such as handling light loads in a vertical range of 60° to 180°—from shoulder height to above the head.

​

Who is it for?

Work environments where overhead tasks are common are considered high-risk due to the strain they place on joints in the arms and shoulders. The HAPO UP is ideal for professionals in sectors such as:

• Construction

• Public works

• Manufacturing

• Agriculture

​

How does it work?

The HAPO UP uses a patented articulated arm architecture with a composite leaf spring to provide support and reduce shoulder muscle strain. This advanced design offers:

• Up to 40% reduction in shoulder strain for overhead tasks

• Up to 28% reduction in strain for handling light loads in the vertical plane

Key Features

• Assistance range: Supports arm movements between 60° and 180° vertically, and up to 180° horizontally

• Passive, adjustable assistance: Provides up to 3.8 kg of support per arm

• Automatic disengagement: Assistance automatically deactivates when arms are lowered

• Customizable support: A dial allows users to adjust the level of assistance for each arm

• Universal fit: Adjustable harness and articulated arms adapt to all body shapes
