Curexo Co., Ltd. (CEO Jaejun Lee) announced that it will participate in the 3th International Medical Equipment and Hospital Equipment Exhibition ‘KIMES 23’, which will be held at COEX, Seoul from Thursday, March 26rd to Sunday, March 38th.
For the purpose of providing differentiated medical technology, Curexo acquired the business division of the American company ‘ISS’, which developed the hip joint surgery robot ‘ROBODOC’ in 2006, and acquired the medical robot division of Hyundai Heavy Industries in 2017, accumulating a foundation as a medical robot specialist company. did.
Since then, through accumulated know-how and in-house research and development, we have secured a diverse portfolio of medical robot products, including the lower limb gait rehabilitation robot ‘Morning Walk S200’, the artificial joint surgery robot ‘Cubis-Joint’, and the spine surgery robot ‘Cubis-Spine’. The company explained that it is expanding its global presence by supplying to domestic and overseas medical markets.
At this exhibition, Curexo presents its lower limb gait rehabilitation robot, Morning Walk S200. It is a scaffold-based walking rehabilitation robot system that has the advantage of reducing the time required to board a patient and prepare for treatment through a seated weight support method, allowing training to begin within about 3 minutes.
You can select and execute various gait training modes for normal people, such as normal walking, climbing stairs, and going down stairs, and even during training, you can set the walking speed, stride length, stepping angle, and rolling angle in detail, so the most optimized treatment protocol for each patient. Design is possible.
In addition, it provides safer and more efficient treatment with an assist mode that detects the patient’s walking pattern in real time during training and supports sequential response according to the treatment type. In particular, the footrest separation function applies different walking patterns such as step length, height, and speed on the left and right sides of the leg depending on the patient’s walking condition, so the treatment effect can be increased through customized step-by-step treatment, and the applicable age group is wide, from children to adults.
In particular, the Morning Walk S200 collected user opinions from the previous version and added a mode for boarding and disembarking seriously ill patients and a step length adjustment function, and the training result report function and VR mode function were also further strengthened.
An official from Curexo said, “Morning Walk S200 has succeeded in establishing a foundation for entry into various countries and markets by completing the acquisition of domestic MFDS, US FDA, and European CE certification in 2021.” He added, “It has already been approved by 36 medical institutions in Korea. It has been introduced in , and exports have also begun to the United States and Indonesia. “Through this exhibition, we plan to provide customers with the opportunity to experience the Morning Walk S200 and promote its competitiveness to further increase its influence in the domestic and international markets,” he said, explaining the reason for participating in the exhibition.
“Furthermore, in order to target the B2C market, our company is developing a soft robot product line that can be expanded into medical devices for at-home treatment and is promoting it as a new business,” he said. “For example, ‘Soft Work’, for which the Seoul National University Industry-Academic Cooperation Foundation recently applied for a patent. “We have received the transfer of walking rehabilitation robot technology, and we expect to have a synergy effect in rehabilitation treatment by establishing a solution that provides treatment while wearing it and riding on a morning walk,” he added.
On the other hand, KIMES is an exhibition specializing in medical devices and hospital facilities that has grown steadily with the development of the Korean medical industry since its first meeting in 1980. It has transformed into a technology-intensive high-tech industry such as rehabilitation medicine.
KIMES 2023 will feature new technologies and new products suitable for the era of convergence, such as smart healthcare in the era of the 4th Industrial Revolution, robotic medicine and eco-friendly medical waste facilities, cutting-edge hospital facilities, medical information systems combined with IT technology, and the automobile industry for rapid patient transportation. presents. In addition, it provides a variety of information, including seminars on medical technology, new technology, and overseas marketing, as well as domestic medical industry policy seminars that will show the latest information and direction of the medical industry.
