A method and assembly machine for producing multicomponent cigarettes, each having a number of portions. The assembly machine has a combining unit for forming groups of portions, each having at least two different first portions which are fed perpendicularly to their central axis; a first wrapping unit, which receives a succession of groups of portions from the combining unit, feeds them perpendicularly to their central axis, and winds a first sheet of wrapping material around each group of portions; and a second wrapping unit, which receives a succession of groups of portions from the first wrapping unit, feeds them perpendicularly to their central axis, and winds a second sheet of wrapping material around each group of portions.

Sticks of rod material used in the manufacture of tobacco products are transferred from one machine to another by a unit comprising two parallel feed channels (2a, 2b) spaced apart at a set pitch (p) , along which two lines of sticks (S) emerge from a dual rod maker, and a drum (3) rotatable about an axis (X) parallel to the feed channels (2a, 2b) , of which the revolving surface affords a succession of flutes (4) alignable in pairs with the two feed channels (2a, 2b) and positionable thus to take up the respective sticks (S) of rod material from the two feed channels (2a, 2b) . Each flute (4) of the drum (3) is separated from the adjacent flute by a distance less than the pitch (p) between the two feed channels (2a, 2b) .
