Abstract - An exoskeleton, as the name proposes, is an external packaging that can be worn to help the body, either to help a person with overcoming an actual issue or to update their regular cutoff points. The edge gives the appendages greater development, strength, and perseverance because of a pneumatic framework. This venture centers around the displaying, fundamental examination, improvement, and testing of a minimal expense, pneumatically worked chest area Exoskeleton model that is expected explicitly for assistive burden lifting and to help modern specialists in conveying weighty burdens. The model will be created utilizing CATIA. The little, and medium-sized undertakings industry, the auto business, search and salvage tasks, transport and coordinated operations, the clinical business, the development business, and various other limited scope ventures are only a couple of the numerous potential applications. The group has built a wearable model that can lift around 12 kilograms for each arm with progress. A 5/2 DC valve has been particularly utilized for development and withdrawal of the arms. The Exoskeleton model's exhibition is being advanced and its lifting limit, portability, adaptability, and controlled synchronized lifting are being improved.

Key Words:  Human exoskeleton, Pneumatic, Load lifting, 5/2 DC Valve, Flexibility.
