Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2017137916A1] An apparatus (1) for making semifinished products intended to form part of smokers' articles, comprises: a stationary mandrel (401A) elongate along a longitudinal axis (402A); an inner strip (7A) of paper wrapped helically around the mandrel (401A); an outer strip (8A) of paper wrapped helically around the inner strip (7A); a power-driven belt (403A) wrapped helically around the outer strip (8A) to impart to the inner and outer strips (7A, 8A) a movement of rotation about the longitudinal axis (402A) of the mandrel and of translation along the axis in a direction of feed; a cutting station (5) positioned downstream of the mandrel (401A) for cutting pieces (200) of a tubular rod (2A) of paper coming out of the mandrel (401 A) and made up of the inner and outer strips (7A, 8A); the cutting station (5) comprises a blade (501) for intercepting and cutting the rod (2A), disposed in a cutting plane (502) perpendicular to the longitudinal axis (402A) and movable along a circular trajectory around an axis of rotation (505) which is inclined relative to the cutting plane (502) so that the cutting plane (502) moves translationally along the longitudinal axis (402A) during the cutting action.
