ABSTRACT:
The hardness of a cigarette rod is determined while it is being made on a cigarette making machine by measuring the strain imposed on a member in the rod closure region. The member is usually a segment of the tongue piece, but could be a segment of the base. The segment in question is mounted to fixed structure by means of a support arm. A strain gauge is positioned on the support arm and the output of the strain gauge is a measure of the hardness of the rod.
