    摘要: Filling apparatus (10) and method for automatically filling containers (100) for smoking articles with an incoherent material (M) of a smokable type. The apparatus (10) comprises delivery devices (22) comprising metering means (40, 41) configured to deliver a determinate quantity of incoherent material in each container (100). Each delivery device (22) comprises a funnel-shaped conveying member (52) which is configured to be made to vibrate during the delivery of the incoherent material (M) so as to prevent the incoherent material (M) which has been delivered by said metering means (40, 41) from accidentally remaining inside the conveying member (52).

    摘要: Apparatus for producing tubular products starting from a tubular body, wherein the apparatus comprises a cutting unit (10) disposed along a directrix of feed (A) of the tubular body to be cut, in order to obtain the tubular products. The cutting unit (10) comprises a rotating arm (11) mounted rotating around a first axis of rotation (R1), and at least one cutting member (12) mounted rotatable on the arm (11) in such a way as to rotate around a second axis of rotation (R2). The cutting member (12) is able to be moved toward a cutting position, in which the cutting member (12) interacts with the tubular body in order to cut it.
