Abstract

The invention relates to a method for evaluating an aerosol-generating article with a susceptor element for manufacturing defects. The method comprises providing an aerosol-generating article with a substrate section, the substrate section comprising aerosol-forming substrate () and the susceptor element (). The method furthermore comprises the method step of providing an intersection through the substrate section and the susceptor element. Another step includes evaluating the intersection for manufacturing defects by determining one or more of: positioning of the susceptor element in the substrate section, length of the cross section of the susceptor element, and shape of the cross section of the susceptor element. Therefor, in an embodiment a visual image of the intersection is divided into a plurality of segments (), thereby creating an approximated circumference () of the cross-section with the susceptor element.
