Steam-generating articles, methods for making steam-generating articles, and steam-generating systems

摘要

A method for manufacturing a vapor generating article (12, 42, 52, 54, 56) comprises the steps of (i) extruding a plurality of elongate vapor generating components (22) (S1); (ii) aligning the plurality of extruded steam generating components (S2); (iii) assembling a plurality of aligned vapor generating components to form a band (S3); (iv) tying the band of the assembled steam generating component (S4); (v) cutting the tied band of the assembled steam generating component to form a steam generating article (S5); (vi) after step (i), drying the plurality of steam generating components (S6). Steam generating articles and steam generating systems are also disclosed.
