$75,000.00
Agreement Date:
Nov 3, 2025 - Mar 27, 2026
Description:
Securing loads with straps is a daily task for truck drivers, but it causes fatigue, wasted time, and injuries. To remedy this, the firm has designed the pneumatic strap launcher, an innovative tool that uses air from the truck to launch straps quickly, safely, and without physical effort. The project now aims to create a fully autonomous version, powered by a rechargeable battery, eliminating any dependence on the truck. This new generation will offer a compact, portable, and universal solution, improving safety, productivity, and user comfort.
