The ATLS (Assisted Transport and Loading System)^[1] is a power suit manufactured by Argo Astronautics. It is designed to assist individuals in lifting heavy loads when manual handling poses safety risks and the use of a vehicle is not feasible. This durable exo-frame incorporates a patented structural support mechanism along with a custom tractor system, which greatly enhances the user's strength, stability, and load-bearing capabilities.^[2]

Features

Tractor beam

The ATLS comes equipped with a bespoke tractor beam on its right arm that has the unique ability to stack items without a grid.^[2]

Lifting Power

The ATLS suit is designed to facilitate substantial lifting tasks with ease. Its exo-frame enables users to lift containers weighing up to 32 SCU without exerting excessive effort.^[2]

Precision

The custom-built integrated tractor system provides complete control during the loading and unloading processes, regardless of the weight or circumstances involved.^[2]

Ideal for ships

The ATLS is not only well-suited for operations at cargo docks, but it also serves as an excellent complement for ships, facilitating the rapid and efficient loading and unloading of goods.^[2]
