  • the invention relates to a method for operating a machine of the tobacco processing industry.
  • the invention also relates to an apparatus for feeding at least one wrapping strip to a feed element which supplies the at least one wrapping strip to a strand of smokable material or filter material of the tobacco processing industry, the device comprising a separating element dividing the at least one wrapping strip.
  • the invention further relates to a method for recommissioning a stranding machine, wherein at least one wrapping strip is fed to at least one strand of smokable material or filter material of the tobacco processing industry, being conveyed by means of a strand conveyor the strand and fed to at least one conveying element carrying the at least one wrapping strip, wherein strand and wrapping strips are conveyed to a format for continuously wrapping the strand with the wrapping strip.
  • the invention relates to a method for emptying a stranding machine, in particular a cigarette rod machine or a filter rod machine, wherein an enveloping strip in a corresponding device or feeding device for wrapping a strand of smokable material or filter material of the tobacco processing industry is at least partially removed.
  • the US 4,648,409 A paper web feeder for a cigarette making machine is known.
  • a suction drum is provided for conveying at least one paper web to a format strip.
  • an actuating device on which a knife is provided, it is possible to cut off the paper web if, after a start of the cigarette manufacturing machine, the printing applied to the cigarette paper is no longer faulty. In this device, therefore, a so-called startup shot or the committee is eliminated when restarting.
  • a manual intervention is required to thread the paper web after machine downtime.
  • the resumption of the operation of a strand machine of the tobacco processing industry should happen especially with little time and very safe.
  • the invention is based on the idea according to the invention that to reduce the Anfahrschußes fixing the HüllstMailvorrats at a machine stop, for example: in a fault leads to the fact that defined when restarting the machine and without loss of time by manually threading the HüllstMails this can be made available again and can be further promoted. This results according to the invention an automation of the operation of the machine of täbakver usedden industry.

  • extrusion machine in particular filter strand machine or cigarette rod machine, provided with at least one device according to the invention or with an inventive arrangement as described above.
  • the object is further achieved by a method for recommissioning a stranding machine according to claim 4.
  • feeding the at least one wrapping strip means in particular the transport of one end of the wrapping strip from a wrapping strip stock to the strand of smokable material or the corresponding transport of the separated part of an enveloping strip.
  • a supply to the strand for restarting the stranding machine is meant.
  • the automatic feeding takes place after a release of the at least one wrapping strip at least at one end fixing fixing means and thus after releasing the at least one HüllstMails.
  • a fixing is provided to fix an enveloping strip, so that it can be automatically fed back in the following when restarting the machine.
  • the fixing means which may in particular be a retaining element, holds the enveloping strip in a predeterminable position.
  • the feeding preferably takes place by means of a transport air flowing in the feed direction.
  • the object is further achieved by a method for emptying a stranding machine, in particular a cigarette rod machine or a filter rod machine, wherein a in a feeder HBOdem envelope strip for wrapping a strand of smokable material or filter material of the tobacco processing industry is at least partially removed, wherein the envelope strip in the Feeder is separated and wherein a part of the HüllstMails is fixed in the feeder, while the other separated part is removed from the feeder.
  • the emptying is preferably done by a short-term further operation of the stranding machine and the associated promotion of the strand.
  • the emptying can also be done by means of transport air or compressed air.
  • the method of emptying a strand machine after receiving a stop signal is performed.
