Exoskeleton for a knee

Hello everybody. I’m a student and I have to design and make an exoskeleton for a knee. This product is just a help for the walk and the sitting for someone who do rehabilitation after an accident. The exoskeleton must provide a torque of 5 N.m so I would like to know if the HerkuleX 0402 could be use for this applying. Thank you.

Hello @Nathanfr

What a nice project! It would be great if you could share it in the Robots section once it is finished!

The HerkuleX DRS-0402 Smart Robot Servo stalls at 52 kgf.cm @14.8V which is equivalent to 5 N.m so I don’t think this servo will deliver enough torque for your project. But maybe you could consider the DRS-0602 model which stalls at 77 kgf.cm @14.8V or you could check the servos section for other similar products.
