Abstract

The method for packaging fruit and vegetable products in crate-type containers (20), equipped with alveoli (21) suited to receive respective products (2), provides for feeding the products (2) along a plurality of conveying lines (30) arranged side by side and for intercepting these products (2) to allow the controlled transfer of individual products (2) to a station of visual observation (7), in which the same products (2) are rotated on revolving support means (6). Visual detection means (12) detect a predetermined surface portion of the products (2) and operate the collection means (13) suited to transfer the products (2) in orientated configuration inside respective alveoli (21) of the container (20).
