In this research, we deal with a robot arm type electric power assist system used in factories and others. In the conventional electric power assist system, automatic control is performed for assisting the vertical movement, but automatic control is not performed for the turning operation. Therefore, in this research, we have constructed a system that senses the operator's force input to the force sensor of the operation lever and performs power assist to the operator. In this paper, we evaluate how much the physical and mental burden of workers has been alleviated by using a power assist system equipped with automatic controlled turning assist / brake function. We compare the results and discuss the effectiveness of the power assist system with the swing assist / brake function.
