They appear to have replicator technology - In the recreation facility
of the alien repair station, T'pol
hand-scans "a matter-energy converter", which she
concludes is "a molecular synthesizer of some
kind" (a replicator). She saw a similar
device on a "Tarkalean" vessel prior to her assignment to Enterprise.

History:
2153:
A Tarkalean freighter was attacked and boarded by
the Borg. The Enterprise responded to the distress call,
discovering two Tarkaleans in the upper deck of the
freighter. Dr. Phlox was able to initially assist the Tarkaleans;
however, he discovered that the Borg nanoprobes had
infiltrated their autonomic systems and that their renal glands
were replaced with cybernetic
devices. The Tarkaleans eventually succumbed to the Borg and one of the
Tarkaleans
attacked and injected Phlox with nanoprobes. The
Tarkaleans later escaped sickbay and attempted to modify the
systems of Enterprise, forcing Captain
Archer to eject the two into space.
