- Replicators were advanced robots capable of reproducing themselves indefinitely, consuming all available resources in an area to create more of themselves.
- A replicator was a device that could produce objects out of other molecules. It was most commonly associated with foods and beverages but industrial replicators were also used to mass-produce items or to produce larger items than what normal replicators would produce. A replimat normally used replicators to produce what its patrons ordered. (RIS Bouteina: "Merry Christmas") Certain people claimed that they could tell the difference between real and replicated food. For instance, Homer Simpson was able to tell real Duff beer from replicated beer. (RIS Bouteina: "Jockship")
- A Replicator is a type of sentient machine that has presented one of the greatest threats to both SG-1 and the Atlantis Expedition. The name may refer to:
* Replicators, spider-like machines that were engaged in a war with the Asgard and later invaded the Milky Way Galaxy.
* Human-form Replicators, versions of Replicators formed from neutronium that can take on the appearance of humans.
* Asurans, human-form Replicators created by the Lanteans to fight the Wraith.
- The replicator is a machine that Dasta the coelophysis made using money stolen from the raptors, and he and Ardul hid it on Geldos Beta before they were arrested and sent to space prison. Dasta intended to use it to replicate money and make himself rich. They eventually forced Gipsy and Arx to take them back to Geldos so that they could reclaim it, but Teggs later took it away from them and gave it to a group of starving diplodocus on Diplox so that they could replicate ferns and never go hungry again.
- The Replicator is a Creatures 3 tool which will replicate any object, or replicate the objects stated in any blueprint. Image:C3Replicator.png Basic operation of the tool is fundamentally the same as the agent injector, albeit with one more tool and a different item selection process. To operate the machine, turn it on with the blue flashing button, drop your item into the tray (the bin surrounded by rotating rings) and press the small, circular red button. The agent in the tray will be copied and re-injected. The remaining bars are exactly identical in all respects to those of the agent injector and are self explanatory.
- A replicator (or food slot) is a device that utilizes transporter technology to dematerialize quantities of matter and then rematerialize the matter in the form of another object, such as food or equipment. By the 24th century, replicators were a common piece of equipment aboard Federation starships and facilities. Prior to replicators, some races have been known to use simpler devices called protein resequencers. (ENT episode: "Fight or Flight")
- A replicator was a device that used transporter technology to dematerialize quantities of matter and then rematerialize that matter in another form.(TNG: "Lonely Among Us" ) It was also capable of inverting its function, thus disposing of leftovers and dishes. (DS9: "Hard Time", "The Ascent"; VOY: "Memorial") Items thus disposed of served to fuel the replicator, and would later be reconstituted as other objects. (VOY: "Year of Hell")
- The replicator is a piece of Star Trek technology adopted by the PPC. A replicator can create most objects, if it has been programmed with the object's pattern. It works much like a transporter, except that instead of rematerializing in another location, the matter rematerializes as another object. Many agents use replicators to provide food; and many replicators are dedicated specifically to food production. Generally considered to be not quite as good as food that started out as actual food, replicated meals are still much better than what can be found at the Cafeteria.

It works much like a transporter, except that instead of rematerializing in another location, the matter rematerializes as another object. Many agents use replicators to provide food; and many replicators are dedicated specifically to food production. Generally considered to be not quite as good as food that started out as actual food, replicated meals are still much better than what can be found at the Cafeteria. Limitations on replicators include computer memory for patterns, power to operate the replicator, and the complexity of the object to be replicated. In the Star Trek canon, replicators cannot, for example, produce dilithium crystals or replicate living creatures. More information can be found here.

The agent in the tray will be copied and re-injected. The remaining bars are exactly identical in all respects to those of the agent injector and are self explanatory. Another feature of the replicator is its ability to create all the required parts of your newly-designed gadgets by replicating their blueprint. To do this, create your gadget by wiring its appropriate nodes together, use the context help to open a window about any one of your nodes, and press the button next to the red one in the top right. This should create a blue rectangular object. Drop this into the replicator and follow the standard process. All the parts are then injected for you-- isn't that handy?

- A replicator (or food slot) is a device that utilizes transporter technology to dematerialize quantities of matter and then rematerialize the matter in the form of another object, such as food or equipment. By the 24th century, replicators were a common piece of equipment aboard Federation starships and facilities. However, many other races in the galaxy had not developed replicator technology and are often interested in learning about the technology. When the USS Voyager was pulled into the Delta Quadrant in 2371, the Kazon became increasingly interested in replicator technology after they observed that it could seemingly create water from the air. Later attempts to try and create their own replicators led to an accident, and the various Kazon sects then attempted to acquire the technology directly from Voyager. (VOY episodes: "Caretaker", "State of Flux") Prior to replicators, some races have been known to use simpler devices called protein resequencers. (ENT episode: "Fight or Flight") Despite replicated food and drinks being practically identical to their real counterparts, some people claim to be able to tell the difference between real and replicated foodstuffs and maintain supplies of their favorite food and beverages from more traditional sources. This may be due to the fact that molecular level resolution is used with replication, rather than quantum level resolution used with life forms - which causes single bit errors to often appear in replicated items. Federation replicators can produce a very wide variety of materials, but as a safety precaution are generally programmed not to be able to produce fatal poisons. Additionally, there are limits to replicator technology and certain complex materials cannot be replicated. Power requirements become prohibitive for larger items, which is the reason why space vessels are still constructed instead of replicated. Due to the single bit errors created by the replication process, some foodstuffs can become mildly toxic and once noted, their use is avoided in replicated dishes. (TNG episode: "Sins of the Father", VOY episode: "Death Wish", and Star Trek: The Next Generation Technical Manual) On the USS Enterprise-D replicator food selection was controlled by computer core subroutine C47. When a computer interface experiment conducted by Lieutenant commanders Geordi La Forge and Data malfunctioned, certain parts of the routine were replaced with some of Commander Data's programming. Among other things, food replicators on six decks of the Enterprise began producing nothing but cat food as Data had been working on new nutritional supplements for Spot. (TNG episode: "A Fistful of Datas") In addition to the standard food and equipment replicators, Starfleet operates larger industrial replicators. Two class four industrial (CFI) replicators were given to the Bajorans to help in rebuilding efforts following the Cardassian Union's Occupation of Bajor. Twelve CFI replicators were shipped to Deep Space 9 to be given to the Cardassians following the initial Klingon invasion of 2372. The shipment, however, was intercepted by the Maquis, with the assistance of Starfleet officer Michael Eddington. (DS9 episode: "For the Cause")
- A replicator was a device that used transporter technology to dematerialize quantities of matter and then rematerialize that matter in another form.(TNG: "Lonely Among Us" ) It was also capable of inverting its function, thus disposing of leftovers and dishes. (DS9: "Hard Time", "The Ascent"; VOY: "Memorial") Items thus disposed of served to fuel the replicator, and would later be reconstituted as other objects. (VOY: "Year of Hell") Replicators were capable of producing something as fresh and tasty as non-replicated foodstuffs, inorganically materialized out of patterns used by the transporters. (TNG: "Lonely Among Us" ) Most people found replicated foods and drinks to taste exactly the same as "real" food, although some people claimed to be able to tell the difference. Furthermore, Federation replicators could be programmed to produce foodstuffs of acceptable "nutritional value". (TNG: "The Price" , "Sins of the Father" , "The Wounded" , "Relics" ; DS9: "In the Pale Moonlight", "You Are Cordially Invited") On Starfleet vessels, replicators produced synthehol versions of alcoholic drinks by default, but they could easily be manually readjusted through their control panel to make real alcohol instead. (TNG: "Up The Long Ladder" ) In addition to foodstuffs, replicators could be used for replicating machine parts, clothing, or other objects. Although clothing could be replicated for general wear, replicators would not allow non-Starfleet crew members to replicate official Starfleet uniforms. Industrial replicators could even be used to replicate heavier machine parts. (TNG: "The Game" ; DS9: "For the Cause"; VOY: "Caretaker", "Phage") Replicators had limits to their functionality. If the object desired contained a certain degree of complexity in its molecular structure, it could not be replicated. (TNG: "The Enemy" ) Replicators aboard Starfleet vessels would not produce fatal poisons. (VOY: "Death Wish") Furthermore, replicators had biofilters which automatically screened out all contaminants. (DS9: "Babel") On Starfleet installations and starships, if a person in custody was confined to quarters, it was standard policy to disable the replicators that the person had access to in order to ensure that a weapon could not be replicated. (DS9: "Inquisition"; VOY: "Counterpoint") Replicators (along with transporters and force fields) were one of the technologies used in holodecks and holosuites. (VOY: "The Cloud", "Twisted", "Dark Frontier", "Pathfinder", "Human Error") Some alien replication technology was used to create organic material, such as when the D'Arsay archive created living snakes. The "Allegiance" aliens were also able to create living things, as in the case of Jean-Luc Picard's imposter, for which the replicators were even able to recreate the dendritic connections where memory was stored. (TNG: "Masks" , "Allegiance" ) While only a genetronic replicator could fully replicate actual organs for use in medical transplants, (TNG: "Ethics" ) by 2371, standard Starfleet replicator technology was theoretically capable of creating artificial substitutes for natural organs for use in transplants. However, this required the system to have some understanding of the organs required; for example, it was impossible to use a replicator to create a set of Talaxian lungs, as Talaxian physiology included a complex series of neural links between the lungs and the rest of the body that replicators were unable to duplicate exactly. (VOY: "Phage") Some citizens of the Federation, such as Robert Picard, refused to use replicators. Picard was opposed to their use and would not allow them on his property. (TNG: "Family" )
