Outline of machines. The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to machines:

Machine – mechanical system that provides the useful application of power to achieve movement.  A machine consists of a power source, or engine, and a mechanism or transmission for the controlled use of this power.  The combination of force and movement, known as power, is an important characteristic of a machine.
