Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zum Herstellen von Filterstäben für stabförmige Artikel der tabakverarbeitenden Industrie, bei dem ein von einem Vorrat abgezogener Filtertowstreifen entlang einer Förderstrecke mit einer Reckeinrichtung gereckt, mit einer Auftragseinrichtung mit Flüssigkeit besprüht, und mit einer Raffeinrichtung gerafft wird, welche Einrichtungen der Vorrichtung jeweils mindestens ein Walzenpaar zum Fördern des Filtertows aufweisen. Die Erfindung zeichnet sich dadurch aus, daß im Bereich mindestens eines der Walzenpaare Luft unmittelbar aus dem Einlaufspalt abgesaugt wird.

Figure 00000001
The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for producing filter rods for rod-shaped articles of the tobacco processing industry, in which a filter tow strip drawn from a supply is stretched along a conveyor line with a stretching device, sprayed with liquid with an application device, and gathered with a gathering device which Devices of the device each have at least one pair of rollers for conveying the filter tow. The invention is characterized in that in the area of at least one of the roller pairs, air is sucked out directly from the inlet nip.
