<p>A method of producing packets (2) of cigarettes having respective small lateral walls (31) each defined by a first and a second longitudinal portion (30; 32, 35) superimposed one on top of the other, and whereby incomplete packets (2a), having the first longitudinal portions (30) folded squarely and the second longitudinal portions (32, 35) projecting laterally and transversely with respect to the first longitudinal portions (30), are fed continuously and crosswise to the second longitudinal portions (32, 35) through a loading station (S1), and are fed parallel to the second longitudinal portions (32, 35) through a gumming and folding station (S3); and a transfer device (10), having a number of transfer pockets (58) movable through the loading station (S1), rotates the packets (2a) through 90 DEG about an axis (B) of rotation crosswise to the first longitudinal portions (30). <IMAGE></p> |
