A method for automated manufacturing of e-vapor devices may include establishing a procession of partially assembled, oriented cartridge units of the e-vapor devices in an assembly path. The method may additionally include preparing the cartridge units for filling while the cartridge units are moving on a first drum-to-drum transport path of the assembly path. The method may also include adding liquid to the cartridge units while the cartridge units are moving in a filling workstation of the assembly path. The method may also include preparing the cartridge units for sealing while the cartridge units are moving on a second drum-to-drum transport path of the assembly path. The method further includes sealing the cartridge units while the cartridge units are moving in a sealing workstation of the assembly path. 用于自动制造电子蒸发装置的方法可包括在组装路径中建立电子蒸发装置的部分组装的、定向的烟弹单元的队列。该方法可额外地包括在烟弹单元于组装路径的第鼓到鼓传递路径上移动时，将烟弹单元准备填充。该方法还可包括当烟弹单元于组装路径的填充工作站内移动时，添加液体到烟弹单元内。该方法还可包括当烟弹单元在组装路径的第二鼓到鼓传递路径上移动时，将烟弹单元准备密封。该方法还包括当烟弹单元在组装路径的密封工作站内移动时，将该
