I would assume that air-bags and other padding isn't needed when the box fits this well on the products. I'm not a manufacturing engineer, but I have watched a lot of How It's Made, the machine doesn't seem more impressive than any of the other plethora of automated manufacturing machines that were available then. That's not to say it isn't a handy thing to have running, it looks like a crew of 4-6 persons with the right setup for folding and packing boxes could probably keep up with the machine as it is running in the video, so as all things in business it's gonna be a cost-benefit calculation that makes the decision.
