Factory world
From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.
Factory worlds, also called foundry worlds, were planets that contained massive factories on their surfaces. They were often rich in minerals such as iron.
[edit] History
Factory worlds were used by the Confederacy of Independent Systems around the time of the Clone Wars to produce countless battle droids for their army. Geonosis was one such factory world, as was Metalorn, which came under Imperial control in the time afterwards.
In some cases, like Kol Huro, entire systems were geared towards manufacturing only.
During the Galactic Civil War, the planet Balmorra was an important factory world for the Imperial Army, being the prime manufacturer of the AT-ST walker.
