The new name reflects a strange and ambitious premise: they want to build factories that build other factories.</p> <p>Fab2&rsquo;s plan is to design and manufacture every piece of equipment used inside its fabs — pumps, valves, gas lines, lithography systems, vacuum chambers, all in-house. Those components get assembled into machines, the machines get assembled into complete fabrication plants, and the company hopes to eventually mass-produce chip fabs at scale.</p>
