Abstract (en)

[origin: US4856538A] The testing of cigarettes before their packaging is appropriately carried out in the region of magazine shafts (13, 14) of a cigarette magazine (10). To bring a layer (38) of cigarettes of a cigarette group (16) into an exact position for carrying out testing, they are temporarily received in a transverse slide (29) which causes the cigarettes to be aligned as a result of a transverse movement.
