WAKU Care: A CMMS System for Exoskeletons

Published on 08.06.2024

The development of exoskeletons has made significant strides in recent years. These technological aids assist humans in physically demanding tasks and medical rehabilitation by providing additional strength and stability. Like any complex machine, exoskeletons require regular maintenance to ensure smooth and safe operation.

The Importance of Regular Maintenance for Exoskeletons


Exoskeletons are equipped with numerous mechanical and electronic components that must function precisely to perform optimally. Without regular maintenance and inspections, several issues can arise:

  • Wear and Tear of Mechanical Parts: Moving parts such as joints and motors wear out over time.
  • Electronic Failures: Sensors, batteries, and control systems can malfunction.
  • Safety Risks: Undetected faults can lead to safety issues and endanger users.
