| Abstract This study evaluated the use of passive upper-limb exoskeletons in a bicycle assembly line to improve employee productivity and ergonomics. Results showed that exoskeletons improved posture and reduced back pain for tasks requiring work above shoulder height, but were less effective for tasks involving bending or varied postures. The research concluded that exoskeletons are beneficial for specific tasks but need careful selection based on the work environment, with further testing recommended for longer durations. |
