The APLU family of mechatronic workhorses has been a staple of Hephaestus’ control and expertise in the field of robotics for decades, with the ‘Ripley’ model being the strongest representative of this idea. Despite its age of over half a century, the Ripley remains in production thanks to a number of key features: simplicity, durability, and efficiency. The units are easily disassembled, repaired, and reassembled even without complex maintenance equipment, and oftentimes damages and malfunctions can even be repaired on the spot. In the same vein, the Ripley sports robust plating that protects against a majority of hazards that can threaten the unit and its operator during industrial work, and features a cleverly designed chassis that optimally protects both the occupant and critical internal systems even in the event that the plating fails. Anecdotes of mining or construction personnel becoming trapped by cave-ins or structural collapses, yet living to see rescue teams recover them thanks to the design of their mech, are rarely falsified.
