Apollo Appoints Cole-Tuve as Exclusive Distributor

Cole-Tuve, Inc. (White Marsh, MD) has been appointed as the exclusive distributor for the U.S. and Canada by Apollo s.r.l. (Reggio Emilia, Italy), a prominent Italian manufacturer of High-Speed CNC Tube & Pipe Punching and Drilling Machines that manufactures 22 different Hydraulic Punching machines. Models are available for accurately punching and drilling pipes, and round, square and rectangular tubes in a variety of holes and shapes.

Apollo machines offer great speed and accuracy (2 holes per second; up to 300,000 holes with a single punch, and as little as 0.2 mm from the first to the last hole on a tube 3 m long). Material can be placed in the machine manually and then processed automatically, or fed automatically from a bundled storage component and processed through the machine in as little as one meter per second.

Cores are available for inside the material – they expand each time a hole is punched to keep it free of fall-off. An Alpha-Numeric programmer is standard equipment. Computer support is available to guide repair in case of breakdown. For round, square and flat bar, similar capabilities are available with drilling components. Models are available for fully automated operation without an operator.
