In the case of partial automation, the picker has a fixed place where the pre-prepared packaging and the machine-selected product arrive. The picker only has the task of packing and labeling the product. 
Full automation is the extension of partial automation. Here, the step of packing is also automated. The machine takes over all tasks from picking out the product to labeling. This reduces the processing time to a minimum.

Once the type and material of the packaging has been determined, the product is then packaged for production. In packaging, a distinction is made between three degrees of automation - manual, semi-automated and fully automated. 
Manual packing means that the order picker takes over all packing tasks. The orders are sifted, the corresponding products are fetched from the warehouse and the packaging is prepared. Then the product is packed and the packaging is labeled.

Packaging technology is first and foremost about packaging products in one or more layers of a packaging material in a way that is safe for transport. 
Different groups of goods and types of transport each have different packaging and materials that are used. 
The deeper meaning, besides the transportability and safety of the product, is the informability and storability. The packaging should show what is inside. For storability, it is important that as little space as possible is wasted, but as many packages as possible can be stored.
