Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2008097081A1] Method for manufacturing a wrapper for use in the manufacture of cigars in which a wrapper to be used for enclosing fillers is obtained in that a tobacco leaf (1) is cut into a number of parallel strips (5) substantially in longitudinal direction, so in the direction of the mid rib (2), whereupon the ends (9) of the strips obtained are connected to each other to one continuous wrapper ribbon (10). At both ends (9), the strips (5) are cut-off across an acute angle (a) to the longitudinal direction, said angle approximately coinciding with the angle enclosed by the side ribs (3) and the mid rib (2). The continuous wrapper ribbon (10) can be wound around the fillers fed as a strand in longitudinal direction, whereupon both longitudinal edges (12) will be connected to each other. The continuous wrapper ribbon (10) is wound onto a roller (11), which is fed to the cigar winding machine.
