APOLLO / PRODUCTION PLANNING

Plan the output
you can use.

Start with your daily target. See how running time and accepted output affect the number of pre-rolls—and retail packs—you can plan for.

01 / YOUR ASSUMPTIONS

Build your planning case.

Example values are editable. They are not measured Apollo utilization or yield.

Individual acceptable pre-rolls, before grouping them into packs.

Total planned time, including pauses. Enter 0.5–24 hours.

Share of scheduled time spent producing. Allow for refills, cleaning, changeovers and other pauses. Example: 75%.

Share of produced pieces meeting your acceptance criteria. Example: 95%. Replace with evidence from your representative run.

Enter 1–100, or leave blank. A retail pack may contain several pre-rolls.

Calculations stay in this browser. No entries are sent or saved.

What this estimate includes

  • Gross running rate: Apollo’s stated approximately 12–16 pre-rolls per minute.
  • Your scheduled hours, productive-time percentage and saleable-yield assumption.
  • Whole pieces and complete packs, rounded down.

This is a planning model, not a validated rate for a selected format, material or weight, a production promise, or an OEE calculation. Packaging labor, downstream capacity and material losses are not modeled. Confirm accepted output and the complete line in a representative trial.

Material fit: main Apollo is for standard ground or milled cannabis flower. Dry kief and dry hash are the only compatible infusion types. Distillate, resin-infused material and extremely sticky flower are not compatible. External coating is a separate process.

03 / MAKE THE NUMBERS MEAN SOMETHING

Take your plan to a real run.

Operators running earlier Apollo machines on a production floor
A real shift includes staffing, replenishment and checks. Earlier Apollo installation.

Bring the exact format.

Record supplier SKU, paper, tip, target fill and finished closure. Use representative material from the intended production supply.

Count accepted output.

Agree on the acceptance checks, observe the full run and record rejects, interventions and time spent replenishing.
