The invention relates to a machine for palletizing substantially parallelepipedic objects such as packing cases, comprising a grouping station for forming objects into a group able to form a layer of a palletized load, which grouping station includes a fixed reference stop ( 17 ) able to stop an object conveyed thereto by an abutment conveyor ( 1 ); a layer-forming surface ( 20 ) extending laterally opposite to the reference stop ( 17 ); a motorized thruster ( 47 ) able to displace the object located against the reference stop ( 17 ) to a predetermined zone of the layer-forming surface ( 20 ) corresponding to the position it is to occupy in the layer being formed; and an automatic control system ( 14 ) adapted to control said drive means so as to position laterally opposite the reference stop ( 17 ) a zone of the layer-forming surface which is to receive the object located against the reference stop ( 17 ), and to control of the thruster ( 47 ) so as to displace the object on to said zone of the layer-forming surface ( 20 ).
