Carton Filling
Automatic volume filler recommended for peaches, plums, nectarines, avacados and tomatoes. System works on a two stage filling cycle. Bulk of fruit goes into carton at first stage. Final filling done at second stage where fruit is metered in (dribbled) one piece at a time to control weight and fruit give away. Designed to fill one-piece cartons with flaps on outside of filler belt. Fruit does not fall over the flaps, thus reducing fruit fall.
