摘要 |
The apparatus for producing a tobacco strand (16) in the tobacco-processing industry, especially a tobacco strand for the production of a cigarette strand, has a rotating strand conveyor (2) which passes through a strand build-up zone (Z), can be charged with fibres in the strand build-up zone to form a strand, and has a discharge end for discharging the fibre strand. Assigned to the strand conveyor 2 is a surplus removal device (19). Means (7, 19) for producing a cross-sectional contour of the fibre strand which at least approximately corresponds, at least along a peripheral section of the fibre strand (16), to the strand contour of the finished strand are provided in the region of the strand conveyor (2). <IMAGE>
