AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing assembly machines struggle to efficiently and cost-effectively manufacture multi-component articles with multiple different rods, such as filtering and flavor elements, due to structural complexity and inefficiencies in the manufacturing process.

Method used

An assembly machine is designed with a forming and winding unit that aligns and winds sheets around groups of rods, and a supply and winding unit that inserts additional rods, allowing for the production of multi-component articles with exposed ends, using a simple and cost-effective method.

Benefits of technology

The assembly machine effectively produces multi-component articles with multiple different rods, ensuring efficient and cost-effective manufacturing without structural complexity, enabling universal production of articles with exposed rod ends.

Abstract

A method for manufacturing a multi-component article (2) comprising a plurality of first rods (3) having an axis (X), comprising the steps of: manufacturing a group of first rods (3B and 3C) comprising at least two different first rods (3B and 3C) aligned axially with each other; winding a first winding sheet (5) around the group of first rods (3B and 3C) to form a wrap; after the wrap is formed by the first winding sheet (5), inserting at least one pair of second rods (3D) into the group of first rods (3B and 3C), wherein each second rod (3D) is arranged to face each end of the group of first rods (3B and 3C); and winding a second winding sheet (6) around the group of first and second rods (3).
