Metalworking is the process of working with metals to create individual parts, assemblies, or large-scale structures.

The term covers a wide range of work from large ships and bridges to precise engine parts and delicate jewelry.

It therefore includes a correspondingly wide range of skills, processes, and tools.

A machine tool is a machine for shaping or machining metal or other rigid materials, usually by cutting, boring, grinding, shearing, or other forms of deformation.

Machine tools employ some sort of tool that does the cutting or shaping.

All machine tools have some means of constraining the workpiece and provide a guided movement of the parts of the machine.

Thus the relative movement between the workpiece and the cutting tool (which is called the toolpath) is controlled or constrained by the machine to at least some extent, rather than being entirely "offhand" or "".

Productivity describes various measures of the efficiency of production.

A productivity measure is expressed as the ratio of output to inputs used in a production process, i.e. output per unit of input.

Productivity is a crucial factor in production performance of firms and nations.

Increasing national productivity can raise living standards because more real income improves people's ability to purchase goods and services, enjoy leisure, improve housing and education and contribute to social and environmental programs.

Productivity growth also helps businesses to be more profitable.

There are many different definitions of productivity and the choice among them depends on the purpose of the productivity measurement and/or data availability.

Distribution is the process of making a product or service available for the consumer or business user that needs it.

This can be done directly by the producer or service provider, or using indirect channels with intermediaries.

A machine is a tool containing one or more parts that uses energy to perform an intended action.

Machines are usually powered by 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.
