We believe technology holds the key to not just overcoming these hurdles, but unlocking unprecedented levels of efficiency and quality.
The Critical Challenges You Face:
The pressures on Australian construction firms are immense and growing:
Crippling Labour Shortages: Finding and retaining skilled workers, especially for physically demanding roles, is a constant battle impacting schedules and growth potential.
Soaring Operational Costs: Wages, materials, and compliance costs continue to climb, squeezing project margins and making competitive bidding harder.
Project Delays & Inefficiencies: Bottlenecks caused by slow, manual processes for repetitive tasks lead to schedule overruns and frustrated clients.
Worker Safety & Wellbeing: Strenuous, repetitive tasks increase the risk of costly injuries (LTIs) and contribute to worker burnout.
Is your business held back by today’s construction realities?
Ignoring these challenges is no longer an option. Relying solely on traditional methods for tasks ripe for automation means leaving significant savings, speed, and safety improvements on the table.

Tomorobo: Autonomous Rebar Tying
As the first cutting-edge solution offered through Modern X’s RaaS model, Tomorobo directly tackles one of construction’s most labour-intensive and costly tasks: rebar tying.
Developed by global construction robotics leader Ken Robotech, Tomorobo works seamlessly alongside your crew, delivering immediate and measurable benefits:
Dramatically Faster Tying: Completes each tie in under 2 seconds – up to 1.4x faster than manual methods, speeding up slab prep significantly.
Significant Cost Reduction: Reduces reliance on expensive tying crews. With potential labour savings of 20–40%, Tomorobo brings predictable cost efficiency through our flexible RaaS model.
Improved Site Safety: Automates a physically demanding, injury-prone task, lowering repetitive strain risks and allowing workers to shift to less strenuous roles.
Unmatched Consistency: Delivers perfectly calibrated ties every time, enhancing build quality and reducing rework.
Tomorobo exemplifies the Modern X approach: leveraging proven technology to solve real-world construction problems — effectively and affordably.
