Take Labour Off Your Fresh Produce Production Line with Our New Crate & Case Erector and Loader
For fresh produce suppliers to major retail chains, efficiency is everything. Labour shortages, rising costs, and the increasing demand for seamless operations mean automation is no longer a luxury—it’s a necessity.
At Fibre King, we specialise in fibreboard automation machinery, while our Oryx Automation brand focuses on crate handling solutions. By combining these two areas of expertise, we’ve developed the Crate & Case Erector and Loader—a versatile solution designed to streamline packaging for fresh produce growers and packers. We understand the challenges of meeting strict retailer requirements while maintaining cost-effective and efficient operations. This innovative system integrates Fibre King’s expertise in case erecting with Oryx Automation’s advanced crate handling technology, delivering a seamless, automated solution that reduces manual labour and improves overall efficiency.
What Makes This a Game-Changer?
Our Crate & Case Erector and Loader brings flexibility and automation together in a way that has never been more crucial for the industry.
✅ Simultaneous Crate and Case Handling
Gone are the days of switching between crates and cases manually. Our Crate & Case Erector and Loader is designed to handle both formats at the same time, allowing you to pack different SKUs or meet multiple retailer requirements without disruption. Whether you need to load fibreboard cases for one order and reusable plastic crates (RPCs) for another, this system ensures a smooth, efficient workflow—maximising productivity and eliminating costly downtime.
✅ Customised for Your Produce
Not all fresh produce is the same. Delicate fruits like berries require careful handling, while robust vegetables need a different approach. Our machine is customisable to suit your specific produce and packaging requirements. Whether you’re dealing with cartons, RPCs, or a combination of both, we can tailor the setup to ensure optimal performance and product protection.
✅ Labour & Cost Savings
With labour shortages becoming a persistent issue, relying on manual case and crate erection can slow down your production and increase costs. By automating this part of your line, you reduce the need for manual handling, minimise errors, and improve overall efficiency. This means:
✔ Fewer labour-intensive tasks for your team✔ Faster, more consistent packaging✔ Lower operational costs over time
