MATE-XB Exoskeleton for Back Support
Description
Designed specifically to reduce lower back pain during lifting and repetitive tasks, the MATE-XB (Extreme Back) is a motor and battery-free exoskeleton that provides assistance to lower back muscles to create short and long-term relief.
Easy to wear and quickly adjustable to fit any body frame, the lightweight carbon fiber structure is water, dust, and element resistant for indoor and outdoor use, even in highly corrosive environments. It supports workers handling loads of up to 55 lb. (25 kg)
MATE-XB replicates physiological movements to provide lumbar support and allows full mobility of the entire body. It also features a quick on/off switching functionality, allowing users to regulate the exoskeleton without interrupting the task at hand.
