Abstract
The present invention is a material dispensing system for controllably dispensing material from a packaging such as a chub pack. The system can include a housing capable of receiving the packaging, a cover pivotably connected to the housing, at least one nozzle tip, and at least one piercing projection capable of piercing the packaging. A packaging compression assembly can be used to compress the packaging toward the piercing projection so that the piercing projection pierces the packaging and allows the material in the packaging to be dispensed from the nozzle tip. A locking slide can be included to secure the cover in a closed position.
