Lockheed Martin has signed a sales and support agreement with Robrady design to sell and support its FORTIS industrial exoskeleton and FORTIS Tool Arm product line. Under the agreement, Robrady will manufacture, sell and provide training, gimbals, accessories and service for Lockheed Martin’s industrial exoskeletons. The agreement expands access for potential FORTIS customers and adds user training and service resources. FORTIS is an unpowered, lightweight exoskeleton that increases an operator’s strength and endurance by transferring the weight of heavy loads from the operator’s body directly to the ground through a series of joints at the hips, knees and ankles. The FORTIS Tool Arm supports tool weight and helps isolate tool vibration and torque kick from the user. Robrady design is a Sarasota-based, multi-disciplined product design and development studio that offers its global client base progressive industrial design, mechanical design and product engineering, graphics / packaging / UI-UX / web, market insights, brand and retail development, complete rapid prototyping and production program management.
