Industrial support for V2 exoskeleton
Japet Medical is a French manufacturer and integrator of exoskeletons. They are developing the only robotized exoskeleton to protect employees’ backs. Japet asked Kickmaker to provide industrial support for V2 of its product.
“We wanted to reduce the number of operating failures on the V1 product”.
Le projet et ses enjeux : support industriel pour une V2 fonctionnelle
Japet Medical’s objective was to improve the robustness of the new version of their exoskeleton and certify it before May 26, 2021 (regulatory change).
Japet Medical was therefore looking for an external engineering partner to support them on their industrial V2. The requirements were based on support and consultancy in mechanics, electronics and embedded software.
For Japet Medical, Kickmaker provided the following services:
- DFM* and DFS for mechanical parts
- The complete industrial process for mechanical parts
Design for Manufacturing (DFM) is the engineering practice of designing products so that they are simple to manufacture. DFM facilitates the manufacturing process in order to reduce product manufacturing costs.
