TORONTO /PRNewswire/ -- Bionik Laboratories Corp. (BNKL), a pioneering medical device and robotics company with a focus in developing technologies and solutions for individuals with neurological disorders ("Bionik" or the "Company"), announced today that it has completed the design of its second generation robotic lower-body exoskeleton ARKE GEN2 and initiated production of the first rehabilitation units.
Peter Bloch, CEO of Bionik, stated, "I am very pleased with the significant advancements we have made with ARKE GEN2 and believe it is a clear example of our team's expertise and strong commitment to advancing our product development strategy."
The ARKE GEN2 is a completely new industrial designed exoskeleton with novel walking gait trajectories and has significantly smaller mechanics and actuator components than the Company's previous versions. It has the highest possible energy and efficiency through both improved battery density and the power-to-weight ratio of the actuators. ARKE GEN2 utilizes Bionik's proprietary transmission and actuation system, one of the most powerful robotic devices as compared to similar systems. The second generation system has a significantly improved and more cost effective electronics system with modular form key components that can be easily maintained and allow for future software expansions and other technology applications.
