  • the invention relates to a machine in the tobacco processing industry for loading a cigarette rod machine.
  • a distributor device is arranged upstream in front of the cigarette rod machine.
  • the distribution device is used to dose the tobacco stream usually supplied via an air stream, to sift it and to form one or more tobacco rods from the sifted tobacco material, which are fed to a downstream cigarette rod machine.
  • tobacco rods which are processed into cigarettes or the like usually consist of a tobacco mixture of different tobacco components or types.
  • the product flow required for the production of cigarettes is assembled and mixed before it enters the distributor device.
  • the tobacco stream is fed to the distribution device via an input device, which is usually formed from a loading lock.
  • the tobacco is sifted, separated and in the distribution device then fed via a storage shaft to a suction rod conveyor for the formation of one or more tobacco rods.
  • a suction rod conveyor for the formation of one or more tobacco rods.
