ABSTRACT:
Tobacco leaves are converted into wrappers for cigar bunches by removing the midribs from successive leaves, monitoring each of the thus obtained left-hand and right-hand leaf halves by a pair of photoelectric cells to determine whether the halves can yield one or more wrappers, and transferring the left-hand and right-hand halves to discrete first and second stamping stations where the halves are cut to yield wrappers which are automatically fed to the bunch wrapping unit or units of a cigar making machine.
