Hello all!
This is from an article about Karlsruhe and its importance as a centre of scientific research. I'm stuck on the word "Nanofabrik" in the following sentence - can anyone help?

Thanks much!

"An der „Forschungsuniversität" mit ihren tausend Wissenschaftlern entsteht gerade eine einmalige „Nanofabrik", in der Biologen, Chemiker, Physiker gemeinsam in den Kleinstkosmos vorstoßen."
