ABSTRACT:
A sheet tobacco producing apparatus comprises a mixer, a kneader, a crusher, and a shaping machine. The mixer mixes tobacco chips with auxiliary substances including water, to produce wet round pieces. The kneader has a pair of rollers for kneading the wet round pieces to form a sheet intermediate. The crusher crushes the sheet intermediate to form crushed wet round pieces. The shaping machine has a pair of rollers for forming a final sheet product from the crushed pieces. Since the tobacco raw material is deformed from the sheet intermediate which is obtained after once kneaded, to round pieces again, it is easy to take the material iinto the gap between the rollers of the shaping machine, whicn increases the manufacturing speed of the apparatus.
