Machinery
Definition:

(n.) The means and appliances by which anything is kept in action or a desired result is obtained; a complex system of parts adapted to a purpose.

(15) The localization of these key components of the pre-mRNA splicing machinery to speckled nuclear regions suggests that these regions may be involved in pre-mRNA splicing.
(16) In circumstances in which energy conversion rate and supplies of reducing power exceed the capacity of the biosynthetic machinery, energy-dependent H2 production presumably represents a regulatory device that facilitates "energy-idling."
(17) Overexpression of these genes, which probably encode lipoproteins, could have deleterious effects on E. coli hosts, possibly as a result of impairing the protein export machinery.

Pitman
Definition:
(n.) One who works in a pit, as in mining, in sawing timber, etc.
(n.) The connecting rod in a sawmill; also, sometimes, a connecting rod in other machinery.
