Lumbar support exoskeleton MATE-XB

mechanicalpassivefor the reduction of muscle fatigue

Proven lumbar support during lifting and bending Battery-free wearable robotic exoskeleton Discover how Comau’s non-powered wearable exoskeleton – MATE-XB – stores human energy in a spring, helping workers lift heavy objects and move cumbersome loads with less physical effort and fatigue. Mechanical Kinematic Chain Structure that facilitates the free movement of the user. The device allows the user to move the trunk freely The passive kinematic chain is designed to be compact around the human body The passive kinematic chain is designed to deal with the human-exoskeleton kinematic compatibility Garment Interface All parts in direct contact with the user’s body. Breathable and bio-compatible materials Wide contact area to distribute reaction forces without causing high-force points Torque Generating Box (TGB) Core mechanism that stores and transforms potential mechanical energy in order to create an adjustable assistive torque. Assistance is proportional to the torque generated by the upper part of the body gentle assistance up to 25 kg Possibility of tuning the amount of support over 5 levels No hindrance while walking Better ergonomic performance Easy to wear and quickly adjustable to fit virtually any body frame, the MATE-XB exoskeleton suit is specifically designed to improve ergonomics during lifting and repetitive tasks. It does so without using motors or batteries by providing passive assistance to the lower back and supporting the user when bending with the legs (squatting), bending forward, or during the repetitive lifting of loads.
