Exo Park

Exoskeletons, also called robot suits, combine human intelligence with mechanical power. They support employees in physically demanding activities or when working in unergonomic positions. At A+A, manufacturers of exoskeletons present themselves.

• 23% of all sickness-related absences are due to musculoskeletal disorders - caused mainly by incorrect physical strain when lifting and carrying.
• Exoskeletons enable employees to carry out their work in a health-friendly manner.
• They support the musculoskeletal system and thus reduce stress.
• They provide relief during physically demanding activities.
• Exoskeletons thus reduce sickness-related absences and production losses.

Experience the future of workplace technology up close in the Exo Park at A+A! Here you have the unique opportunity to try out exoskeletons for yourself and discover the innovative developments in the field of physical support. Find out how these advanced devices can revolutionise ergonomics and safety in the workplace. Immerse yourself in the world of exoskeletons and test their impressive functions and benefits. Find out more in the video below.

In addition, the Fraunhofer IPA and the University of Stuttgart’s IFF will present the EXOWORKATHLON.

This event will demonstrate various activities featuring industrial exoskeletons for the upper and lower extremities, in order to show and facilitate discussion of their functions with regard to user feedback, ergonomics, metabolics and production quality. It will offer the chance to make intraindividual comparisons of these specific activities as performed with and without an exoskeleton.
