Abstract: For promoting the adaptation between machine and material in the process of filter assembling, the factors affecting the assembling quality were analyzed, and the grooves in glue applying roller for tipping paper and the working surface of the rolling plate were modified. The results showed that the thickness of glue on tipping paper and the pressure on cigarette and filter plug impacted by rolling assembly closely related to filter assembling quality. After improvement, the width and depth of grooves on glue applying roller could be chosen depended on the specifications of cigarette and material used; to raise the adhesive strength during rolling, the percentage of cigarettes with defects of wrinkles or air leak in total defective cigarettes decreased from 66.7% to 9.1%; the average rate of cigarette maker shutdown per month reduced from 12.65% to 8.13%.
