17、e) Part 3: Method using a vibro-bench Technical Specificationiv ISO 2015 All rights reserved PD ISO/TS 3550-3:2015 ISO/TS 3550-3:2015(E) Introduction The loss of tobacco from cigarette ends, which particularly affects short strands, is a nuisance for the industry, as well as for the consumer. From t
18、his standpoint, the greater a cigarettes resistance to loss from its end, the higher its quality. The devices available for measuring such loss of tobacco are based on the principle of mechanically vibrating cigarettes in a cigarette-containing tester. ISO 35501 and ISO 35502 describe two particular
19、 types of device. The first, described in ISO 3550-1, comprises a rotating cylindrical cage through which tobacco is allowed to fall into a weighing vessel. The second, described in ISO 3550-2, uses a cubic box rotating around its main diagonal axis. A third method, based on use of a vibro-bench, vi
20、brating along the horizontal direction is described in this part of ISO 3550. The first system (ISO 3550-1) principally permits determination of losses undergone by the cigarette during the manufacturing and packaging processes, while the second method (ISO 3550-2) can be used to estimate tobacco lo
21、sses undergone throughout the distribution network and in the smokers pocket. The third method (ISO/TS 3550-3) is applicable to the determination of tobacco losses that the cigarette is likely to undergo throughout its lifecycle. The three methods were designed for different application fields by us
22、ing different simulation test devices with completely distinct mechanical structures, so the physical meanings of results given with three methods are different. The absolute mean values between the three methods are not comparable and these methods cannot be substituted for one another, although th
23、ere can be some correlation between them. Therefore, these methods are not mutually exclusive. ISO 2015 All rights reserved v PD ISO/TS 3550-3:2015 Cigarettes Determination of loss of tobacco from the ends Part 3: Method using a vibro-bench 1 Scope This part of ISO 3550, as Technical Specification,
24、specifies a method for the determination of loss of tobacco from cigarette ends using a vibro-bench. This method applies to the determination of loss of tobacco from cigarette ends in manufacturing site, throughout the distribution network and also while in the smokers pocket. NOTE Two other methods
25、 for the determination of loss of tobacco from the ends, using a rotating cylindrical cage and a cubic rotating box (sismelatophore), are described in ISO 3550-1 and ISO 3550-2, respectively. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this docu

28、on. During the test, the vibro-bench reciprocates along the horizontal direction and the cigarettes vibrate inside the bench. The amount of tobacco that falls out from the open end(s) of the cigarettes is determined gravimetrically. 4 Apparatus 4.1 Conditioning chamber, capable of controlling the en

35、e vibro-bench, being equal to the length of cigarette plus (5,0 1,0) mm. f) the vibro-bench reciprocates with the vibration frequency of (300 1) times per minute, i.e. 5 Hz, and the vibration amplitude of (19,5 0,5) mm. The vibro-bench will stop automatically when the specified number of vibrations
36、is reached. For normal testing, the number of vibrations of (600 1) is specified; g) the tobacco which has fallen out of the cigarette ends is collected in the collection tray attached to the analytical weighing balance kept under the vibro-bench (see Figure 1). The tobacco thus collected is weighed
37、 accurately to 0,001 g after the vibration experiment is completed and results are stored in the control unit through a communication interface. 4.3 Device for the measurement of the diameter of the cigarettes, in accordance with ISO 2971. 4.4 Ruler with graduations in millimetres, to an accuracy of
38、 0,5 mm. 4.5 Counting trays (optional), for filling a defined number of cigarettes for use as the test portion. The dimensions of the tray depend on the number of cigarettes in the test portion which, in turn, depends on the diameter. Annex B shows an example of a counting tray. NOTE A counting tray
39、 is a useful device for selecting a defined number of cigarettes in a time-saving and error-free manner. The dimensions of the counting tray depend on the number of cigarettes and their diameter. The example given in Annex B is a counting tray for 20 cigarettes of 7,8 mm in diameter. ISO 2015 All ri
