Specifically, when the controller 400 sends out an extrusion signal, the electric screw 94 will rotate according to the extrusion signal to rotate toward the screw hole 95 of the piston cylinder 600, so that the distance between the mixing chamber 10 and the piston cylinder 600 will be reduced (even making the The distance between the mixing chamber 10 and the piston cylinder 600 approaches 0), at this time, the piston cylinder 600 is at the extrusion position, and the pusher plate 36 can be pushed and displaced by the piston rod 610 to squeeze the mixture from the nozzle 66 of the extrusion head 60 out. After the extrusion is completed, the electric screw 94 rotates again according to the choke flow issued by the controller 400, so that the piston cylinder 600 moves in the flow choke direction D and the distance from the mixing chamber 10 becomes larger. At this time, the piston cylinder 600 will drive the piston The rod 610 moves toward the flow-blocking direction D together, so that the mixture in the mixing chamber 10 can be prevented from moving toward the extrusion head 60 due to inertia. In addition, the screw connection position between the electric screw rod 94 and the screw hole 95 can also be adjusted through the controller 400 to adjust the distance and/or speed of the piston cylinder 600 moving in the blocking direction D.
