Automatic Tray & Box Filling Machines

Trays and boxes are popular packaging types in the food industry. They’re rigid, protecting softer foods from damage during shipping and storage. Ideal for bulk cases of candy or trays and clamshells of baked goods, frozen food, lettuce, berries, other produce, and more, this packaging solution fulfills a special need in the food industry. However, manually filling trays and boxes with products is time consuming and labor intensive, slowing operations and increasing costs. Enter box filling machines and tray filling machines—automatic or semi-automatic solutions for more streamlined operations.

Since its founding in 1920, Powell has been a world leader for packaging solutions custom engineered to handle our customers’ container filling projects. Our engineers custom design systems that immediately increase quality control, reduce labor, and stop unnecessary product loss, resulting in tremendous cost savings.

We have systems to fit all production levels. Our fully automatic box filler will run bulk boxes at up to 30 boxes per minute. Our Smaller semi-automatic systems start at two to three boxes per minute. Powell’s fully automatic tray fillers start at 30 trays per minute and can be expanded up to 150 trays per minute. Powell also custom engineers an extensive line of linear weighing equipment and multi-head combination weighers to automate your product weighing and then either automatically or semi-automatically fill your containers. We offer both fully automatic tray and box indexing and filling systems and semi-automatic systems that weigh your product automatically and then deposit it into hand-held boxes or trays using our advanced box filling machine.
