People come to have a strong interest in the rapid and certain rescue operation. In this research, a hydraulically-powered artificial McKibben muscle has been developed and improved. It is applied to Artificial Muscle Spreader (AMS) using the high hydraulic pressure for the rescue operation support. Two kinds of AMS have been developed to use the AMS properly in the situation. Each AMS is 300mm×30mm×180mm, and 630mm×40mm×270mm in size, 1.5kg, and 6.0kg in weight, 10kN, and 14kN in spread power and 70mm, and 300mm in the spread stroke. They are lighter than conventional spreaders and more excellent in the operability and portability. The field tests of AMS have been carried out in imitative fields of disaster sites with rescue workers. In consequence of those tests, their practical performances in the space securing operation at the disaster sites are verified.
