Box filler

for fruitfor the food industryhigh-speed

Overview
Gentle Box Filler platforms accurately fill boxes and cartons of various sizes while minimising bruising and product damage. Available in standard Gentle Box Filler, high-throughput Gentle Box Filler+, and Weighing Box Filler variants, these machines are designed for packing delicate fruit and for lines that require accurate counts and weights.

Key benefits

• Gentle and fast: Standard models typically fill 3–4 boxes per minute, counting individual pieces to meet specified packing counts.
• Higher throughput for delicate fruit: The Gentle Box Filler+ is optimised for very delicate varieties (e.g., kiwifruit, stone fruit) and can substantially increase throughput compared with the standard model.
• Space-saving layout: Increased throughput reduces the number of outlets required, allowing a shorter sizer and a smaller plant footprint.
• Reduced equipment and labour: Fewer fillers are needed for a given volume, lowering capital and operational labour requirements.
• Accurate weight control: The Weighing Box Filler variant verifies box weight to the specified target during filling.

Applications
Suitable for first-class packing of delicate fruit (e.g., kiwifruit, stone fruit), repacked or ripe produce, and processes where produce is handled in multiple stages (pre-grading then final packing). Appropriate where gentle handling, accurate piece counts and weight verification are required.

Variants

• Gentle Box Filler (standard)
