An "ideal machine" is a theoretical concept used in physics and engineering to describe a machine that operates with perfect efficiency and without any losses. In other words, an ideal machine perfectly converts input energy (or power) into useful work without any waste due to friction, heat, air resistance, or other factors that typically cause energy losses in real machines.
