Gelöst wird diese Aufgabe durch ein Verfahren zum Herstellen von stabförmigen Artikeln der Tabak verarbeitenden Industrie, insbesondere Filterzigaretten oder alternative Rauchprodukte, wobei stabförmige Artikel queraxial mittels Fördereinrichtungen, insbesondere Fördertrommeln, einer Trommelanordnung gefördert werden, wobei stabförmige Artikel doppelter Länge mittels einer ersten Perforationseinrichtung mit einem ersten Perforationsmuster versehen werden, in einem weiteren Schritt die stabförmigen Artikel doppelter Länge mit einem zweiten Perforationsmuster mittels einer zweiten Perforationseinrichtung versehen werden und in einem nachfolgenden Schritt die stabförmigen Artikel doppelter Länge in stabförmige Artikel einfacher Länge geschnitten werden und danach die stabförmigen Artikel einfacher Länge mittels einer dritten Perforationseinrichtung mit einem dritten Perforationsmuster versehen werden.This object is achieved by a method for producing rod-shaped articles of the tobacco-processing industry, in particular filter cigarettes or alternative smoking products, wherein rod-shaped articles are conveyed transaxially by means of conveyors, in particular conveyor drums, a drum assembly, wherein double-length rod-shaped articles by means of a first perforation with a first Perforation patterns are provided, in a further step the rod-shaped articles of double length are provided with a second perforation pattern by means of a second perforating means and in a subsequent step the rod-shaped articles of double length are cut into rod-shaped articles of simple length and then the rod-shaped articles of simple length by means of a third Perforation device are provided with a third perforation pattern.
Die Erfindung beruht auf dem Gedanken, dass stabförmige Artikel mittels der drei vorgesehenen Perforationseinrichtungen unabhängig voneinander mit Perforationsmustern bzw. Lochbildern versehen werden, wobei es möglich ist, mittels einer Perforationseinrichtung jeweils mehrere Reihen mit verschiedenen Perforationsmustern zu versehen. Hierbei werden beispielsweise die stabförmigen Artikel doppelter Länge, die aus Tabakstock-(doppeltlangen)Filterstopfen-Tabakstock-Gruppen gebildet sind, mittels der ersten Perforationseinrichtung und anschließend mittels der zweiten Perforationseinrichtung mit einem ersten und zweiten Perforationsmuster versehen, um anschließend die doppelt langen Tabakstock-Filterstopfen-Tabakstock-Gruppen in Filterzigaretten einfacher Länge bzw. Gebrauchslänge zu schneiden, um im Anschluss daran mittels einer dritten Perforationseinrichtung ein drittes Perforationsmuster am Umfang der stabförmigen Artikel einfacher Länge auszubilden. Hierbei werden während des Herstellungsprozesses die stabförmigen Artikel doppelter Länge sowie die stabförmigen Artikel einfacher Länge queraxial auf den Fördereinrichtungen bzw. Förderorganen einer Filteransetzmaschine gefördert.The invention is based on the idea that rod-shaped articles are provided with perforation patterns independently of one another by means of the three perforation devices provided, it being possible to provide a plurality of rows with different perforation patterns by means of a perforation device. Here are, for example, the rod-shaped articles double length, the tobacco rod (double-length) filter plug tobacco rod groups are formed, provided by means of the first perforating means and then by means of the second perforating with a first and second perforation pattern to then cut the double-length tobacco rod filter plug tobacco rod groups in filter cigarettes simple length or use length, followed by a third Perforation device to form a third perforation pattern on the circumference of the rod-shaped article of simple length. Here, during the manufacturing process, the rod-shaped articles of double length and the rod-shaped articles of simple length are conveyed transaxially on the conveyors or conveyor elements of a filter attachment machine.
Während der Ausbildung des ersten und des zweiten Perforationsmusters sind die doppelt langen stabförmigen Artikel bzw. die doppelt langen Tabakstock-Filterstopfen-Tabakstock-Gruppen nicht in der Mitte durchgeschnitten, so dass hierbei die ersten und die zweiten Perforationsmuster vorzugsweise im Bereich des doppelt langen Filterstopfens der ungeschnittenen bzw. der ungeteilten Rauchartikelgruppe ausgebildet werden.During the formation of the first and the second perforation pattern, the double-long rod-shaped articles or the double-length tobacco rod filter plug tobacco rod groups are not cut through in the middle, so that in this case the first and the second perforation preferably in the region of the double-length filter plug uncut or undivided smoking article group are formed.
