Summary:The cut-off of a continuous rod cigarette-making machine makes poorer ends at very high speeds. Therefore, double-length rods are cut off, are subdivided by a rotary knife while in a fluted drum, so producing excellent ends, are transposed so that the good ends are outermost, and are then made into mouthpiece cigarettes by inserting a double-length mouthpiece portion between them, uniting the assemblage with an encircling band and subdividing it to produce two mouthpiece cigarettes in which the poorer quality ends are concealed. Triple length rods may be subdivided by two rotary knives, the centre cigarettes have two excellent ends and may be used as plain cigarettes.
