The PRO (Pre-Roll Operator) series from Accelerant Manufacturing is by far the most evolved infused pre-roll machine on the market and is trusted by more than 40 of the most successful cannabis brands, manufacturers, and toll processors. With a No CapEx "PaaS" business model (billing only on throughput) perfected by Alan Ellman these machines are capable of 3,000 infused pre-rolls per hour with a single operator running as many as 3 machines simultaneously. Major innovations like Cone Correction, Air Compaction, Tunable Crowns, and real-time multi-angle QC Observation with AI have increased efficiency with less errors, less downtime, less waste, and more real-world throughput. We launched "The Automation of Kief Coating" live at MJBiz in 2024. Investors and Engineering Team applicants please feel free ping with questions and ideas.
