Abstract

This study proposes a scientific classification method for tobacco-leaf density that combines light transmittance with two physical indices—width-to-length ratio and grammage ratio—to overcome the limitations of traditional, experience-based approaches. After measuring light transmittance, we incorporate these physical indices to establish objective criteria. Three density classes—“loose,” “medium,” and “dense”—are defined by threshold transmittance values, and the physical indices are used to refine the classification. Experimental results show that the combined assessment significantly improves accuracy and consistency. The method is simple, fast, precise, and well-suited for large-scale industrial quality control of tobacco leaves.
