An apparatus is configured to dispense assembly material on an electronic substrate. The apparatus includes a frame and a unit coupled to the frame. The unit includes a material cartridge coupled to a pressure regulator configured to deliver pressurized air to the material cartridge at a desired pressure. The material cartridge is configured to contain assembly material. The apparatus further includes a substrate support configured to support the electronic substrate and a controller configured to control the apparatus including the unit. A system to detect static volume in the material cartridge includes a mass flow meter to measure a volume of air delivered to the material cartridge. The controller is configured to determine a volume of assembly material in the material cartridge upon determining the volume of air in the material cartridge.
