The present invention provides a method and apparatus for manufacturing smoking articles. First multi-segment components are formed each comprising a combustible heat source, an aerosol-forming substrate and an airflow directing segment by feeding a stream of combustible heat sources, aerosol-forming substrates and airflow directing segments along a moving delivery path, compacting the segments into groups; wrapping each group; and cutting the web of material between groups to separate the individual first multi-segment components from each other. A stream of first multi-segment components are fed onto a receiving means, and a stream of second multi-segment components, each comprising a mouthpiece and at least one further segment, are also fed onto the receiving means. A first multi-segment component and a second multi-segment component are combined by wrapping the components in a web material to form an individual smoking article having a combustible heat source at a first end and a mouthpiece at a second end. |
