Comau MATE-XB, the new wearable solution to reduce back fatigue

The MATE-XB is the new COMAU wearable device that fully accommodates the needs of those workers engaged in moving cumbersome loads by reducing their lower back fatigue during lifting and repetitive tasks. It is a fully passive device that provides assistance to the back muscles without batteries, motors or other failure-prone devices. Easy to wear and quickly adjustable to fit virtually any body frame, the exoskeleton is water, dust, and element resistant for both indoor and outdoor use, even in highly corrosive marine environments. MATE-XB replicates the user’s physiological movements to provide optimal lumbar support and thanks to its intuitive and easy-to-use design, it grants full mobility of the entire body. Created with the aim of improving ergonomics for operators engaged in manually moving loads, and extensively tested at Esselunga Group, a leading large-scale retail trade company, it is perfect for logistics, fulfillment, manual palletizing & depalletizing, manual pick & place, bending, lifting from a floor level, and for many other applications requiring the operators to bend their back.
