Zusammenfassung:A material wetting system 35 for wetting a powder material 100 includes a liquid supply system 36, a material mising unit 45, 46, a material supply system 26, and a shroud assembly 60. The liquid supply system 36 includes a supply line 37. The material mising unit 45, 46 is in fluid communication with the supply line 37 and includes a central cavity 47 having an open upper end 48 configured to receive a supply of powder material 100. The material mising unit 45, 46 is configured to receive liquid from the supply line 37 and is operatively connected to a reduced pressure source to draw air into the central cavity 47. The material supply system 26 includes an orifice 28 and is configured to feed powder material 100 through the orifice 28, with the orifice 28 disposed above the central cavity 47 of the material mising unit 45, 46. The shroud assembly 60 is disposed about the open upper end 48 of the central cavity 47 of the material mising unit 45, 46 and the orifice 28 of the material supply system 26.
