ABSTRACT:
A method and line for forming and conveying orderly groups of elongated products, particularly cigarettes, whereby each group is formed of a number of superimposed layers of products arranged side by side and separated by a given distance less than the width of the product and such as to compensate for the absence of at least one product in each of the layers each group being formed by feeding the relative layers axially and successively into a forming spindle, at least the bottom wall of which presents seats separated by the aforementioned given distance and for receiving and transversely retaining in position the products in a first layer; and each pair of adjacent products in one layer defining a seat for transversely retaining in position a product in an upper layer.
