    - Machine element: It is an individual part or component which performs specific tasks. They are used to hold and support different components, to transmit power from one component to other.

    The different types of machine elements are:

    1) Holding type elements: Keys, nuts and bolts, cotters and rivets are different holding elements.

    2) Supporting type elements: Axles, bearings, brackets, and frame are different supporting elements.

    3) Power transmitting elements: Shafts, pulleys and belts, sprockets and chains, gears are different power transmitting elements.
