Exoskeletons aren’t just for megafactories anymore. In Episode 14, we sit down with Sarah Bellini Ross (Evolving Innovation) to unpack how small, medium, and large businesses can fold occupational exoskeletons into real‑world safety programs—without breaking the budget.
‑ When “out‑of‑the‑box” works (and when it flops)
‑ Why fit and task‑matching trump tech specs
‑ Funding ideas that make exos affordable for small shops
‑ Quick‑win use cases you can act on today

Not all heroes are visible; some are embedded deep in the tech.
CubeMars is engineering high-torque actuators specifically for exoskeletons and humanoid robots. Their AKE Series is helping drive human-centered robotics forward with tailor-made motors.

We believe component suppliers like CubeMars deserve more attention, because wearable robots wouldn’t move at all without them.
