Luban Exoskeleton Technology
Luban Exoskeleton Technology offers a range of industrial wearable support systems focused on occupational health and safety. Their portfolio includes solutions for back and shoulder support, aimed at reducing physical load in logistics, manufacturing, and trade industries.
RB3D
RB3D develops and manufactures wearable robotic systems designed to reduce physical strain in industrial environments. Their Hercule series includes powered lower-limb exoskeletons for load carriage and passive upper-body systems for tool support. The company focuses on cobotics and human augmentation for manufacturing and logistics.
Ergosanté
Ergosanté develops ergonomic solutions for the workplace, specializing in the HAPO range of passive exoskeletons. Their systems are designed to support the back, shoulders, and neck during repetitive tasks and heavy lifting. They emphasize lightweight, non-restrictive designs that can be integrated into daily workflows in logistics, healthcare, and agriculture.
Exhauss
Exhauss designs and sells passive industrial exoskeletons derived from camera stabilization technology. Their products are focused on tool handling, load management, and upper-limb support for workers in construction, logistics, and manufacturing. The system is modular and uses spring-based mechanisms to offload the weight of heavy tools or the arms themselves.
StrongArm Technologies
StrongArm Technologies focuses on protecting industrial ‘Industrial Athletes’ through wearable data and mechanical support. While pivotally focused on the FUSE sensor for risk tracking, its historical product line includes the V22 ErgoSkeleton, a passive device that supports the back and shoulders during heavy lifting. The company uses data analytics to reduce workplace injuries.
ATOUN
ATOUN was a Panasonic-backed company that specialized in powered exoskeletons for heavy labor. Their Model Y back support system was utilized in logistics and baggage handling operations. The company’s technology has influenced subsequent developments in the sector.
ULS Robotics
ULS Robotics develops powered exoskeleton technology for industrial and medical sectors. Their product range includes powered lower-limb systems for lifting, upper-body support for overhead work, and medical rehabilitation devices. They focus on modular high-torque designs for manual labor assistance.
Comau
Comau, a player in industrial robotics, manufactures the MATE (Muscular Aiding Tech Exoskeleton) series. Their passive exoskeletons are designed to assist workers with overhead tasks (MATE-XT) and lifting tasks (MATE-XB). These devices provide mechanical support without motors or batteries.
Laevo
Laevo specializes in the development of passive, wearable exoskeletons designed to support the back during bending and lifting tasks. Their products, such as the Laevo V2 and Laevo Flex, use a chest-pad and spring system to offload the lower back. These devices are used in logistics, agriculture, and healthcare to address lower back strain.
Mawashi Science & Technology
Mawashi develops Human Augmentation Systems for defense and industrial settings, including passive load-bearing and industrial exoskeleton technologies focused on load transfer and injury reduction.
