Over the years, the number of exoskeleton devices utilized for upper-limbrehabilitation has increased dramatically, each with its own set of pros andcons. Most exoskeletons are not portable, limiting their utility to daily usefor house patients. Additionally, the huge size of some grounded exoskeletonsconsumes space while maintaining a sophisticated structure and require moreexpensive materials. In other words, to maintain affordability, the device'sstructure must be simple. Thus, in this work, a portable elbow exoskeleton isdeveloped using SolidWorks to incorporate a Twisted Strings Actuator (TSA) toaid in upper-limb rehabilitation and to provide an alternative for those withcompromised limbs to recuperate. Experiments are conducted to identify theoptimal value for building a more flexible elbow exoskeleton prototype byanalyzing stress, strain conditions, torque, forces, and strings. Preliminarycomputational findings reveal that for the proposed intended prototype, astring length of.033 m and a torque value ranging from 1.5 Nm to 3 Nm areoptimal.
