ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A machine for automatically positioning and feeding containers includes a main hopper for receiving randomly containers, and a bottom with a peripheral edge portion at a distance from the side wall of the hopper to provide a space through which the containers can drop by gravity towards a lower section. A lateral aperture in the side wall of the hopper in a curved lateral area precedes the container unloading station, the aperture being adapted to remove, mainly by centrifugal force, malpositioned containers housed only partially in and protruding from holding and transporting units, or located external to them and conveyed by other containers. The aperture communicates with a recovering auxiliary hopper, external to the main hopper and a coupled belt type conveyor associated with the external hopper for recycling containers into the loading area preceding the lateral aperture. An air jet, or at least one rotating brush, impinging on containers not correctly positioned may be incorporated as a supplement to the action of centrifugal force.
