Device for cutting continuous cigarette rods

摘要

On a machine for producing at least one continuous cigarette rod, the rod is guided along a given path through a cutting station where it is cut into portions by a cutting device wherein a supporting body, fitted with a counterblade for supporting and guiding the rod, and with a blade movable on the supporting body and through a transverse slit on the counterblade, is moved about an axis crosswise to the path of the rod to move the counterblade along a circular trajectory tangent to the path of the rod at the cutting station.
