Abstract: An apparatus for automatically straightening a candle wick inside a receptacle containing a fusible combustible material in the solidification phase is provided that includes a detection system operable to detect an initial position of the wick inside the receptacle, a movable gripping system operable to grasp and displace the wick, and a control system connected to the detection system to drive it in a detecting manner and receive the initial position. The control system is connected to the gripping system to drive it in a gripping and displacing manner, from a rest configuration to an initial configuration in which the gripping system grasps the wick in its initial position and then to a final configuration in which the gripping system has vertically straightened the wick.
