Abstract:
1. A method, comprising: depositing a quantity of article-forming media within a media receiving cavity of article forming equipment, wherein the article forming equipment includes a compression case and two compression bodies slideably disposed within a compression body receiving passage of the compression body, wherein the media receiving cavity is jointly formed by a media compressing face of each one of said compression bodies and walls of the compression case defining the compression body receiving passage; and depositing a volume of a prescribed fluid into the media receiving cavity after depositing at least a portion of said article-forming media within the media receiving cavity, wherein depositing the prescribed fluid includes providing a fluid delivery mechanism within a first one of said compression bodies and extending a first fluid delivery device of the fluid delivery mechanism through a delivery device receiving opening within the media compressing face of the first one of said compression bodies and into a delivery device receiving opening within the media compressing face of a second one of said compression bodies and wherein the first fluid delivery device has a substantially straight longitudinal axis extending substantially parallel with a longitudinal axis of the compression body receiving passage, and wherein depositing the prescribed fluid includes moving the first fluid delivery device through the quantity of said article-forming media while injecting the prescribed fluid through the first fluid delivery device into the quantity of said article-forming media.
