Abstract: The method for manufacturing inductively heatable tobacco rods comprises the steps of providing a continuous profile of a susceptor and cutting the continuous profile of susceptor into individual susceptor segments. The method further comprises the steps of guiding an aerosol-forming tobacco substrate along a tobacco substrate converging device, positioning the individual susceptor segments in the aerosol-forming tobacco substrate and converging the aerosol-forming tobacco substrate to a final rod shape. Therein, the step of positioning the individual susceptor segments in the aerosol-forming tobacco substrate is performed before performing the step of converging the aerosol-forming tobacco substrate to its final rod shape.

Abstract: The forming apparatus comprises a feed path for continuously feeding a continuous tow material along a transport direction, a forming device connected to a downstream end of the feed path and adapted to form the continuous tow material into a continuous tubular rod. The forming device comprises a tubular element adapted to allow the continuous tow material to pass through the tubular element to form the continuous tubular rod and a steam generator adapted to generate overheated steam. The steam generator is in fluid connection with the tubular element to provide overheated steam to the continuous tow material. The forming device further comprises several fluid conduits to provide overheated steam from the steam generator to several injection sites arranged along a length of the tubular element, wherein at least one fluid conduit of the several fluid conduits comprises a temperature control unit including a temperature sensor and a temperature influencer.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing inductively heatable aerosol-forming rods (100). The method comprises supplying a first substrate web (31) and a second substrate web (32) separately to a continuous multiple-stage rod-forming process which comprises at least a first and a subsequent second stage. The method further comprises supplying a continuous susceptor profile (20) to the rod-forming process such that the susceptor profile passes through at least the second stage. Furthermore, the method comprises passing the first and second substrate web separately through the first stage. Thereby, the first and the second substrate web are separately pre-gathered transversely with regard to a respective transport direction of each of the substrate web through the first stage. The method further comprises passing the susceptor profile and the pre-gathered substrate webs through the second stage. Thereby, the separately pre-gathered substrate webs are jointly gathered into a rod shape around the susceptor profile. The invention further relates to a multi-stage rod-forming device (10) comprising at least a first stage (11) and a second stage (12) downstream of the first stage. The first stage is configured for separately pre-gathering a first and a second substrate web (31, 32) respectively as each of them passes through the first stage. The second stage is configured for jointly gathering the pre-gathered substrate webs into a rod shape around a susceptor profile (20) as the susceptor profile and the pre-gathered substrate webs pass through the second stage.
