Battery-powered pneumatic Guardian® HLS
Heavy-Lift System ordered by several U.S. government agencies to
aid in recovery, rescue, and field service missions which require
rapid lifting of heavy objects
Sarcos Defense, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sarcos Robotics
(“Sarcos”), a leader in the development of robots that augment
humans to enhance productivity and safety, today announced that
several U.S. government agencies have purchased the Guardian® HLS
Heavy-Lift System. The Guardian HLS system, designed in
collaboration with the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL), is a
first-of-its-kind, easily packable, pneumatic heavy-lift system
designed to quickly and efficiently lift objects weighing up to
45,000 pounds for asset recovery and emergency response missions in
the field.

The Guardian HLS system is comprised of a single battery-powered
pneumatic compressor combined with two proprietary, reusable
airbags made from Dyneema® fiber. This design enables the safe and
stable lift of heavy and bulky military assets, such as tactical
land vehicles, machinery, and fuel tanks, where the speed, timing,
and accuracy of operations are crucial. This rapid-deploy system
can lift a Class 2 commercial vehicle in less than one minute and
can be operated by a single person. The system is faster, lighter,
and more stable than other alternatives on the market and
eliminates the need to carry high-pressure air canisters. It also
supports a lift capacity that is significantly greater than other
solutions.
“These new contracts with the U.S. government for the Guardian
HLS Heavy-Lift System are a great validation of the technology and
proof point of Sarcos’ continued success and relationships in this
sector,” said Tom Jackson, President, Sarcos Defense. “We are proud
to support our government customers with a variety of solutions
that address their specific needs.”
The Guardian HLS system is available for purchase by
governmental, defense, and public safety organizations. For more
