Inductively heatable aerosol-forming rods and shaping device for usage in the manufacturing of such rods

An inductively heatable aerosol-forming rod for an aerosol-generating article, the inductively heatable aerosol-forming rod comprising:

• at least one cylindrical core portion comprising at least one of a first aerosol-forming substrate and a first flavoring material;
• a first elongate susceptor laterally abutting the at least one cylindrical core portion at a first side along a longitudinal axis of the inductively heatable aerosol-forming rod;
• a second elongate susceptor laterally abutting the at least one cylindrical core portion at second side along the longitudinal axis of the inductively heatable aerosol-forming rod opposite to the first side such that the at least one cylindrical core portion is sandwiched between the first elongate susceptor and the second elongate susceptor;
• and
• a sleeve portion arranged around the at least one cylindrical core portion, the first elongate susceptor, and the second elongate susceptor, the sleeve portion comprising at least one of a filler material, a second aerosol-forming substrate, and a second flavoring material.
