Abstract
A device provides a directed supply of tobacco ribs to a cutting tool. A vibrator conveyor conveys the tobacco ribs into the inlet area of a press conveyor disposed upstream of the cutting tool. The vibrator conveyor includes vertical partitions extending in the direction of tobacco rib transport. The intervals between the partitions are less than the average tobacco rib length. A device regulates the level of the tobacco rib flow transported between the partitions. Tobacco ribs can be precisely aligned in the axial direction prior to cutting, and can be transferred to the cutting tool without any loss of orientation.
