ABSTRACT:
In the packaging of (long-fiber) cut tobacco, individual tobacco portions (10) are formed from a strand of tobacco (17). These are underweight. In the region of a tobacco balance, the difference between the actual weight and the nominal weight is determined and a difference portion (25) is added accordingly. The complete tobacco portion (10) has to be transferred to a discharge conveyor (bucket chain 28). For this purpose, a star feeder rotating synchronously with a bucket mechanism is used as a distributor device (26).
