Scanning system using radioactive radiation in cigarette rod making machine

Patent ·
OSTI ID:4345952
A scanning system for a cigarette-making machine or other continuous rod- making machines has a radiation source passing a beam into an ionization chamber comprising a positive rod electrode surrounded by a tubular negative electrode, and the output current is fed via a responsive-correction circuit which compensates for the slowness of the response of the ions in the ionization chamber.
