Testimonials
"The visit from Apollo Engineering was incredibly beneficial for our team. They helped us get one of our tanks working properly and identified issues with another that would have otherwise gone unnoticed. The depth of knowledge and expertise from Toma and Scott was invaluable. Thanks to their insight, we now have a dedicated approach to operating and maintaining our equipment, which has already led to noticeable improvements. We truly appreciate Apollo’s support and professionalism."

Powerful engine cleaning results, read the review below
We recently introduced the new Apollo Cleaning chemicals (EziClean and EziBoost) into our existing Apollo Hot tank, and the results have been outstanding. The system delivers exceptional cleaning performance, removing carbon, rust, paint, grease, and oil from engine blocks. The time-saving efficiency and reduction in manual labour have significantly boosted our productivity.
The cleaning system is cost-effective and is easy to use. The Apollo hot tank's versatility allows us to clean various types of parts with ease. Overall, we are extremely satisfied with this new cleaning solution and highly recommend it.

case studies
“Apollo’s laser cutting services have become pivotal to Walters Fencing, eliminating the difficult task of fabricating by hand and minimising the time spent on machining and fabrication. We’ve maintained a good relationship with Apollo over the years. The team are very friendly, engaging and reliable and continue to assist in achieving desired outcomes that help our business grow.”
– Don Pollard – Lead Designer/ Production Manager
“Maskill is the leading undercarriage solutions provider in Australia. We engaged Apollo Engineering to design, develop and manufacture a parts washer to eliminate the need for us to manually high pressure clean the undercarriage components. Apollo worked with us through the entire process to ensure we got what we needed. Like any prototype, we had initial teething issues but Apollo supported us every step of the way! By automating our cleaning processes, we’re saving hours per job!”
– Casey Maskill, Supply Manager
“We have been dealing with Apollo for a number of years as a result of their flexibility and experience. Apollo can complete any job we require and we are proud to have a local engineering company supporting our manufacturing efforts. We have noticed rapid improvements and expansion in Apollo’s services as a result of their constant installation and advancement of machinery. The ability to source custom parts locally by utilising their laser cutting services is a huge benefit. The team at Apollo always provide quality products with good service.”

Various Names for Hot Tanks:
Hot tanks, often referred to as hot wash tanks or caustic baths, are designed to clean engine parts and heavy-duty machinery by using heated water and detergents. These names highlight the high-temperature process and chemical cleaning capabilities.
Difference Between Hot Tanks and Automated Spray Washers:
A hot tank submerges parts for extended cleaning, ideal for baked-on contaminants, while an automated spray wash parts cleaner uses high-pressure jets to clean parts faster and with less manual effort. Spray washers are more efficient for frequent cleaning.
Hot Tanks vs Sand Blasting:
While sand blasting is abrasive and can cause surface damage, especially to delicate components, a hot tank offers a gentler yet thorough cleaning process, reducing the risk of wear or damage to parts while still effectively removing grime and contaminants.
