ABSTRACT:
A tobacco filler rod having improved filling power, improved uniformity of quality of tobacco along its length and improved distribution of sizes of tobacco particles in the cross section of the filler rod is formed by dividing the tobacco particles of a vertically-moving relatively wide and thin stream of tobacco particles into a plurality of narrow continuous substreams of tobacco each having substantially the same quantity of tobacco therein by the use of suction, conveying the substreams under the influence of suction out of contact with the relatively wide stream and forming the filler rod by gentle intact layering of the substreams one on top of another on a filler rod-forming surface.
