Presented in collaboration with the Australian Army, LAND FORCES 2018 is an international industry exposition created to provide the latest equipment, technology and services for the armies of Australia and the Indo-Asia Pacific. It will be held September 4-6, 2018 at the Adelaide Convention Centre in Adelaide, South Australia.

This region includes some of the fastest-growing economies in the world. This growth is bringing significant and measurable prosperity and better lives to billions of individuals. However, growing threats mean there is more demand for defense technology.

Defense Budget in Australia Set to Grow

Presently modernizing their current inventory, Australia’s defense forces are beginning to acquire new equipment as well—acquisition projects that will total more than AUD $190 billion over the next decade. The ADF is specifically planning to spend more than AUD $56 billion on land force equipment, services, and new combat capabilities.

Power Breezer Meets Demand for Global Military Cooling Solutions

Mobile cooling solutions designed and manufactured by Breezer Mobile Cooling have been readily implemented by military forces globally. They are used in many of the world’s hottest regions to cool both indoor and outdoor spaces. Rugged and mobile, Power Breezer mobile cooling units are military grade and have passed MIL-STD 810G.

“We are excited to be part of the U.S. Pavilion at Land Forces 2018,” says David Williams, VP of International Sales for Breezer Mobile Cooling. “We are there to connect and re-connect with military and industry leaders from Australia and the Indo-Asia-Pacific region. Our mobile cooling solutions have been well adopted by the military community. That’s no surprise, because keeping personnel safe and the morale up is crucial to a successful mission.”

Breezer Mobile Cooling Joins the Ranks of Major U.S. Defense Industry Players

The U.S. Pavilion is hosted by Kallman Worldwide. “We participated in 2016 in this exhibition with great success and are heading down under once more,” explains David Williams. “Kallman is organizing the stellar U.S. presence at this show and many major U.S. defense industry players are present. We are proud to join the ranks of these companies and are ready to do our part to help mitigate the threat of heat stress in military personnel everywhere.”

Packaging robots can beat labor long term on cost, PMMI argues

Packaging robots can beat labor long term on cost, PMMI argues

PMMI's Tom Egan wrote in Processing Magazine that adding packaging automation and robotics can now be justified as more cost-effective over the long term than the high cost of labor in food, beverage and CPG plants. Separately, Packaging World describes AI-enabled AMRs from ABB and Agilox that automate material movement between packaging stations. The remaining gap is adoption among smaller manufacturers.

  • 01Two reference points for infrastructure-light material movement: ABB's Flexley Mover P603 carries 1,500 kg with sub-centimeter positioning and no floor markers, and Agilox's OFL lifts 800 kg pallets on peer-to-peer fleet software with no central traffic controller, per Packaging World.
  • 02The open ground is small and mid-sized manufacturers: MTC's Mike Wilson counts tens of thousands of UK SMEs with no robotic automation at all and expects cobots to take most of that growth.
  • 03A robotics business case should include procurement, not only line labor: a June 2026 China Journal of Accounting Research study found heavy robot adopters spread buying across more suppliers, gaining resilience but losing inventory efficiency and adding transaction costs.

Xtellio brings telematics to jobsite tools and heaters

Xtellio brings telematics to jobsite tools and heaters

Xtellio launched a two-tier telematics platform in March 2026: 32 battery-powered Xense sensors for small tools and wired Pro-Xentral devices for excavators, light towers and heaters. The company claims a 10-year battery life. Data is delivered through open APIs, which Xtellio frames as customer ownership of the data, aimed at rental and construction fleets where small assets have gone largely untracked.

  • 01Xtellio’s stated 10-year battery life for its Bluetooth Xense sensors is the key spec to test in the field; if it holds up, tagging hundreds of tools can look like a one-time install rather than a recurring battery-maintenance program.
  • 02For rental houses and contractors running mixed fleets, the sharper question is no longer which machines have telematics but whether the heaters, light towers and hand tools do, and whether that data lands in the same system.
  • 03Open APIs and “data liberation” are part of Xtellio’s pitch, and the coverage frames that as a prompt for RFP questions: what the APIs expose, where data can be sent, and whether customers can take historical data if they switch providers.

Senate bill would double smart water grants to $50 million a year

Senate bill would double smart water grants to $50 million a year

S. 2388, the Water Infrastructure Modernization Act of 2025, would double an EPA water tech pilot to $50 million a year through 2028. Grants would cover design, construction, training and operations for leak detection, advanced metering and AI analytics, WaterWorld reported. Planning and maintenance stay on the utility's tab.

  • 01Under S. 2388 as WaterWorld describes it, feasibility studies are not grant-eligible, so a utility would have to pay to build the case for a smart water project before applying for help building the project itself.
  • 02The bill's eligible list puts advanced digital design and construction management tools in the same bucket as meters and sensors, which would give a utility's capital delivery team a claim on the same grant as its field operations group.
  • 03The existing pilot program's authorization runs through 2026, per WaterWorld; the bill would extend it to 2028, and its last reported status was 'introduced' as of Aug. 12, 2025.
