Honeycomb Fabricator

In YE 40 Galactic Horizon delved deeper into the field of nanotechnology with the Honeycomb Fabricator, a self-contained aether-powered nanobot fabricator that converts energy into matter. Multiple Honeycombs may be used in tandem to increase efficiency via spreading out workloads. It uses nanomachine extruders at set points rather than mechanical arms and is an extremely dense piece of equipment that needs to be hooked up to almost any kind of external display in order to function, seeing as it has no on-board one to keep the unit as compact as possible.

Price: 1,000KS per unit
Nomenclature: GH-U7-1A
Weight: 1.5kg

Function

The Honeycomb contains a combined fabricator/processor (referred to as the “Queen Bee” for the swarms of nanobots it creates and orders around) in its center; around the fabricator/processor are three storage tanks that contain its nanobots. The purpose of these nanobots varies depending on whatever product they are instructed to synergise with various fail-safes are built in to prevent a grey goo scenario from occurring; additionally, the Honeycomb is incapable of fabricating exotic materials like zesuaium.

A Honeycomb can construct up to 6 cubic centimeters’ worth of nanobots per second.

Appearance

The Honeycomb is a black reuleaux triangle that is 15cm tall, 15cm wide, and 1.75cm thick. It has a sturdy center yet flexible sides and appears to have a rubber finish.

Availability

Due to the somewhat sensitive and complicated nature of the Honeycomb Fabricator's internals, it is only available either directly through Galactic Horizon, their affiliates, or higher-end electronics stores.

Recommended Retail Price: 1,000KS/refer to here for currency exchange

*Disclaimer: No matter where the unit is sold or fabricated, the components have a Galactic Horizon watermark engraved into them.
