Star wars equivalent to replicator

I've been browsing wookieepedia lately and I came across http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Food%20synthesizer]this.My question is how much faster could the empire take over the milky way with this advantage and how would the feds respond to this?

There's no evidence that it's suitable for any sort of industrial purpose.

I fail to see why it would make any difference if it WERE. The Empire has all the technological, numerical and industrial advantages it's ever going to need as it is. We're talking a single ISD outgunning the entire Alpha Quadrant disparity here. Barring the intervention of quasiomnipotents like the Q or Organians the Trek side's best efforts won't amount to a speed bump for the invasion, should the imperials for whatever reason chose to invade.

Did you seriously open this thread just to ask how the Federation will react to a foodsynthesizer?

Frankly the duplicator has always seemed more applicable to me. IIRC there's even a novel that has industrial scale versions as well.

The Empire, and the Republic before them, already has molecular construction on a much larger scale. So... no difference whatsoever.
