Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2020035830A1] The object of the invention is a method and an apparatus for the conversion of a moving stream of oppositely oriented rod-like articles wherein the oppositely oriented rod-like articles are turned around the axis corresponding to the direction of movement of oriented rod-like articles so that the oriented rod-like articles take a consistent orientation, characterised in that the individual rod-like articles in the consistent orientation are held in at least two layers, and, in addition, the rod-like articles in the consistent orientation are transferred to grouping modules and groups of rod-like articles with the consistent orientation, containing at least two layers of the rod-like articles in the consistent orientation, are formed.
