According to data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, 650,000 cases of musculoskeletal workplace injuries have cost employers over 20 billion USD in total expenses.
To address this challenge, COMAU, a leading robotics company, has joined forces with ÖSSUR, a pioneer in bionic prosthetics, and IUVO, a developer of wearable robotic systems, to create the MATE wearable exoskeleton.
The MATE system utilizes a Torque Generating Box (TGB) that stores and transforms potential mechanical energy, redistributing much of the arm’s workload to the pelvis through its ergonomic structure. This innovative design has been proven to:
Increase static endurance by 56%
Enhance task quality and precision by 27%
Improve overall performance speed by 10%
Reduce muscular exertion by 30%
