Summary:An apparatus includes a stationary assembly and a reciprocating assembly. The stationary assembly includes a hopper, a first gas manifold, and a distribution chamber, and the reciprocating assembly includes a channel assembly defining a channel conduit, a shield plate vertically aligned therewith, and a second gas manifold. The reciprocating assembly is movable relative to the stationary assembly to a first position to enable the channel conduit to be filled with bulk compressible material from the hopper, and a compression assembly movable to a second position relative to the stationary assembly to enable the compressible material to be pushed from the channel conduit to the distribution conduit and compressed in the distribution chamber according to the first gas directed through the channel conduit by the first gas manifold, and move to a third position relative to the stationary assembly to enable the compressed material to be ejected from the distribution conduit as a function of a second gas directed th
