Abstract
An apparatus has a cartridge utilized to contain a volume of construction material. A piston is inserted into the cartridge under operable control by at least one plunger assembly. A forming device is removably mounted to the cartridge opposite to the piston. A loading assembly is engaged to the cartridge to sequentially insert the volume of construction material and the piston into the cartridge. At least one sensor package is oriented towards the cartridge to capture at least one condition datum from the volume of construction material. A unitary controller receives and processes the condition datum to supply control signals to the plunger assembly and the loading assembly based on historical condition data.
