Abstract

The invention relates to a machine (1) for producing a continuous rope of the tobacco industry having particles (3) of a first material and particles (4) of a second material different from each other; the machine (1) has: belt conveying means (2) having an active branch (20) movable in a conveying direction (D), with two opposite lateral edges (21, 22); a first feeder (30) below the active branch (20) to feed particles of the first material (3); a second feeder (40) arranged below the active branch (20), downstream of the first feeder (30), to feed particles of the second material (4); and a compactor unit (5) between the first feeding zone (31) and the second feeding zone (41) to compact the particles (3) of the first material held on the active branch (20) by acting on the opposite lateral edges (21, 22).
