The machine that places cellophane or polypropylene on cigarette boxes is commonly known as a cigarette wrapping or a cigarette overwrapping machine.

These machines are designed to wrap a single cigarette pack or a bundle of packs in a thin layer of plastic film, which helps to protect the cigarettes from moisture and maintain their freshness.

The cigarette wrapping machine typically uses a roll of cellophane or polypropylene film, which is fed through the machine and cut to the appropriate length to wrap the cigarette pack.
