Machine
A
machine is a
tool containing one or more parts that uses
energy to perform an intended action. Machines are usually
powered by mechanical, chemical,
thermal, or electrical means, and are often
motorized. Historically, a
power tool also required moving parts to classify as a machine. However, the advent of
electronics has led to the development of power tools without moving parts that are considered machines.
