Feed & weighing
Product moves from the hoppers toward the weighing cups through opposing feeds. The rotary carrier has four cups: two per side, rotating between positions.
THE REDESIGNED APOLLO
Apollo pre-roll machine.
An established rotary platform, rebuilt around a redesigned body and frame. New twisters, improved vibration and more control over your production.
REDESIGNED BODY + FRAME
UPGRADED MECHANICS + CONTROLS
Production rate12–16 per minute
Electrical supply110 V AC · 60 Hz
Designed forGround flower
Apollo-supplied figures. Output varies with material, cone and setup. Dry kief and dry hash are the only compatible infusion types.
MAIN APOLLO / MATERIAL COMPATIBILITY
Made for ground flower.
Standard input
Standard ground or milled cannabis flower.
Dry infusion only
Dry kief and dry hash are the only compatible infusion types.
Not compatible
Distillate, resin-infused material and extremely sticky ground flower.
OilCoat and KiefCoat are separate downstream machines for exterior coating of finished pre-rolls. They do not change what can run through the main Apollo filler. Explore the Coating Series ↗

01 / THE REDESIGNED APOLLO
A familiar machine. A closer look.
Start with the redesigned body and frame. Scroll to move beyond the enclosure and explore the stations inside.
02 / THE ROTARY WORKFLOW
One platform. Connected stations.
Cone handling, four-cup weighing, filling and finishing meet around the main rotary wheel.
03 / EXPLODED ASSEMBLIES
See how the parts relate.
The assemblies separate to reveal the feed paths, rotary platform and finishing hardware. Explore each station in the machine guide.

Already at work.
Apollo has already been in the market and on production floors. The rotary workflow is the foundation we continued to develop.
Time to improve.
We stepped back from marketing to rework the body, frame, mechanical parts, twisters, vibration and controls.
Apollo, reintroduced.
The established platform returns with those improvements and its own independent brand.

Real footage. A closer look at the process.
EARLIER-MODEL PRODUCTION FOOTAGE
The footage shows Apollo’s established workflow, including the exterior checkweigher transfer. The redesigned machine retains that underlying process with upgraded parts.

Fill & settling
The main wheel carries cone holders through the filling and settling stages. The redesign includes an improved vibration system and more process adjustment through the controls.

Twist, cut & finish
After filling and tamping, the finishing stations twist the cone, cut excess paper and crown or flatten the end. New twisters are part of the redesign.

Check & collect
The exterior transfer picks up the finished pre-roll and moves accepted product into the collection bin. Discuss the checkweigher configuration for your production line.
A CLEARER VIEW OF THE MOVEMENT
Four cups. Two per side. A rotating carrier.
This visualization opens up the arrangement that is harder to see in the photographs: longer feeds taper toward the cups from opposite sides, while the cup carrier rotates between positions.
LOOK AT THE OUTPUT
Filling and finishing, explained.
Evaluate your finished pre-roll.
Bring the exact cone, target fill and material you plan to run. In a demo, look at the fill, the finish and consecutive weights together.
This earlier footage shows the inspection process. It does not establish the redesigned machine’s weight tolerance.

The finished pre-roll is the point.
For your customer, it is a moment. For your production team, it is the result of the paper, material, fill and finish working together.
Start with the product you want to make. Choose the cone dimensions, target fill and finish, then evaluate them with your actual material.

THE REDESIGNED APOLLO
More adjustment. A familiar workflow.
The new body and frame house upgraded mechanical parts, new twisters and an improved vibration system. Expanded PLC and HMI controls give the operator more settings to adjust.
See those adjustments during a demo. We’ll walk through how the machine is set up for your cone, material and finish.
