Cigarette Rolling Machines
Rolling machines for cigarettes - simply roll perfect cigarettes
A cigarette rolling machine (also known as a "winder rolling machine") is perfect for smokers who are not quite as experienced in rolling blunts, joints or cigarettes. With a rolling machine, rolling is much easier, faster and more convenient. Gone are the days of misshapen cigarettes, air holes or wasted tobacco. Optimum tobacco distribution ensures even burning and a pleasant smoking experience - every time.
Pre-rolling for the party, one-handed while standing in the tram or semi-industrial chord production at the living room table: a tamping or rolling machine is recommended for all these applications.
Why use a rolling machine for cigarettes?
These devices are a real help, especially for beginners and occasional rollers, when it comes to producing the best-looking cigarettes possible. After all, home-rolled cigarettes should not only be smokable, but also look appetising. Rolling by hand is not everyone's cup of tea and requires a high level of practice, which can sometimes be a little frustrating to achieve.
A lathe offers clear advantages, especially if you like things quick and easy:
- ✅ Even tobacco distribution ensures perfect smoking enjoyment
- ✅ Saves time when pre-rolling large quantities for travelling or parties
- ✅ Less tobacco loss - you save money in the long term
- ✅ Even beginners achieve perfect results immediately
- ✅ Fewer air holes, less risk of going out in between
💡 In short: a rolling machine saves you time and reliably delivers evenly rolled cigarettes - without any practice.

Cigarette rolling machine with filter - how to do it right
Many smokers prefer to use a cigarette rolling machine with filters, as they make the smoke more pleasant and reduce harmful substances. Standard rolling machines are compatible with all common filter sizes (5 mm to 8 mm). You may only need to pay attention to compatibility with special sizes. Activated charcoal filters can normally also be screwed in without any problems.
Step-by-step instructions: Rolling cigarettes with filters
- Open the machine: Open the rolling machine by pulling the rollers apart.
- Place the filter: Insert the filter at one end of the machine.
- Fill with tobacco or herbs: Fill tobacco or herbs evenly into the machine. Make sure not to fill too tightly and not too loosely.
- Close the machine: Press the rollers together and turn them slightly to shape the tobacco or herbs.
- Insert paper: Slide the leaflet between the rollers with the sticky side facing up.
- Roll the cigarette: Turn the rolls evenly and slowly until only the adhesive strip is sticking out.
- Moisten the paper: Lightly moisten the adhesive strip of the rolling paper with your tongue and continue turning the rollers to close the cigarette.
- Remove the cigarette: Open the rollers and carefully remove the finished cigarette.
💡 To summarise: With a rolling machine, you can easily roll perfect cigarettes with filters. Almost all common filters are compatible with your rolling machine. If you twist it tight enough, you could even twist a normal tip!
Can I use herbs instead of tobacco?
Yes, herbs or cannabis can also be used perfectly with rolling machines. It is important that the mixture is finely and evenly ground (e.g. with a grinder or similar) in order to achieve the optimum result. Particularly robust metal and Ecoplastic lathes are best suited for coarser, resistant material.
Difference between lathes and turning aids
- Lathes handle the entire turning process, including the sealing of the paper. They are effectively an all-in-one solution
- Turning aids only pre-form the tobacco or herbs or serve as a base - you then have to close the leaflet yourself.

Small, compact rolling machines made of ecoplastic or metal are ideal for travelling. They are robust, space-saving and fit easily into any bag.
⚠️ Note: Find out in advance about permitted tobacco quantities or the general legal situation for smokables when travelling abroad.
