ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus for counting, collating and packaging a predetermined number of tubular articles. Known devices for handling and delivering a batch of such articles, for example cigarette tubes with filter tip, are not capable of automatically delivering and packing a predetermined number of articles. The present apparatus automatically delivers a predetermined number of articles in a packed box by the coordinated action of a counting device, separator gate and first picking plate movable horizontally towards a second picking plate so that the predetermined number of tubular articles are scooped and eventually retained between the two picking plates before removal into a waiting box.
