  • the starting of the packaging machine is problematic, namely the insertion of the Cigarettes in the empty collection containers, conveying areas and in the cigarette magazine. Falling movements or disordered conveying movements make the cigarettes mechanical impaired. In addition, misalignments occur to a considerable extent individual cigarettes. The same problem occurs with the promotion of cigarettes along horizontal or upright cigarette conveyors.
  • GB 877.876 discloses the use of a platform on which the cigarettes rest during the downward transport. In a lower end position of the platform is pulled out of the container sideways, the cigarettes are placed in the container. Subsequently, the platform is outside the container is moved to an upper starting position and to hold new cigarettes reinserted into the container.
