OXBO LAUNCHES NEW LABOR-SAVING TECHNOLOGY FOR BLUEBERRY HARVESTERS


Source: Oxbo news release

Lynden, Washington - Oxbo, a leader in specialty harvesting and controlled application equipment, is excited to release AutoFill, a new on-harvester automation technology, for Oxbo 7440 and 7450 blueberry harvesters. AutoFill automation technology is available through a select, limited release program in 2025 and full production in 2026.

AutoFill automation was designed to reduce labor by up to 75% and to increase harvester efficiency. Building on the foundation of Oxbo's EvenFill technology, AutoFill has proven to reduce on-machine labor for fresh market and process blueberry growers and to deliver uniform lug weights for improved throughput at the packhouse. AutoFill automatically de-stacks empty lugs, fills lugs to the correct, pre-set weight, and then automatically indexes full lugs to be stacked.

"AutoFill is the first technology of its kind in the blueberry market. It delivers an automated solution that streamlines the operation, improves accuracy, and dramatically increases efficiency," said Cory Venable, Director of Sales & Marketing for Oxbo Fruit. "AutoFill is a game changer for berry growers. It's all about enhancing productivity and reducing labor reliance during harvest."

For information on AutoFill technology, contact Oxbo or your local Oxbo dealer.
