A Machine element is a standard basic component of a machine. These elements consist of three types:

  • structural components such as frame members, bearings, axles, splines, fasteners, seals, and lubricants,
  • mechanisms that control movement in various ways such as gear trains, belt or chain drives, linkages, cam and follower systems, including brakes and clutches, and
  • control components such as buttons, switches, indicators, sensors, actuators and computer controllers.
