Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1516545A1] Several, preferably four, flat stretches of tobacco fleece are distributed onto four berths (14, 15, 16, 17) and guided to two conveying devices (18, 19) each of them fitted with two suction units. Two twin lines are formed and positioned parallel one upon another. They can be processed simultaneously including shaping (34, 35, 36, 37) the wrapping into papers, providing one edge of the paper with glue, and the weighing. The vertical distance between the twin lines is at least of the same dimension as the distance between the two individual lines positioned beside each other.
