ABSTRACT:
The making of an elongated tobacco stream which is to be densified, wrapped and severed for conversion into discrete cigarettes is controlled in dependence on the resistance of the stream to the flow of a gaseous fluid thereacross prior to removal of the surplus of tobacco. The signal which is generated to effect the control may be influenced by a parameter, such as the height of the stream prior or subsequent to removal of the surplus, and such signal determines the distance between the plane in which the equalizer removes the surplus from the stream and a conveyor which advances the stream lengthwise. Such signal may be formed as a function of several parameters.
