Abstract (en)
[origin: EP1854725A1] A method and machine (2) for packing groups (3) of cigarettes in respective sheets (7) of packing material, whereby a succession of rigid packing pockets (5), each having a substantially tubular first portion (23) and a C-shaped, outwardly-concave second portion (24) aligned with the first portion (23), is fed through a first loading station (6) where a U-folded sheet (7) of packing material is fed into the second portion (24) of each packing pocket (5); through a second loading station (10) where a group (3) of cigarettes is fed axially into each packing pocket (5) through the first portion (23) of the packing pocket (5) and into a temporary relative position with respect to the sheet (7) of packing material; and through an unloading station (12) where each group (3) of cigarettes is moved axially with respect to the relative sheet (7) of packing material, so as to position the group (3) of cigarettes in a final relative position with respect to the sheet (7) of packing material.
