We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Machine Building", and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest. Let me be your guide.
 
Start with the news release Track offers robust transportation option from Machine Building Systems, which we summarised at the time by saying "The roller units offer a choice of fixing positions which can provide either a ride height which is flush with or 4mm from the track profile". Earlier in the week, we featured the news release Website provides detailed drive information from HMK Automation and Drives: "HMK's new site includes technical manuals, installation documents and downloads of the product ranges".
 
In December 2007, we covered the news from MiniTec UK concerning its Profile System and Linear System - take a look at Machine framing and modular positioning which says: "Comprehensive machine building ranges are now supported with a new 372 page hard-cover catalogue covering well over 600 items".
 
Take a look also at the news release from MiniTec UK, Machine framing systems in print, as well as Polish universities receive fieldbus help from CC-Link Partner Association, and High-power drives suit heavy-duty applications from Baldor UK.
