/məˈʃiːn ʃɒp//məˈʃiːn ʃɑːp/

The term "machine shop" can be traced back to the early days of the industrial revolution when factories began to replace traditional methods of craftsmanship. These factories were furnished with specialized buildings or rooms called "machine shops" to house the machines and equipment necessary for manufacturing goods. Prior to the industrial revolution, craftsmen and artisans would often create goods by hand, one at a time. But the emergence of advanced machines such as those used in textile manufacture, ironworks, and steam engines required dedicated spaces to store and operate these complex machines. In these shops, skilled workers, known as machinists, would operate and maintain these machines to produce parts and components for larger equipment. Over time, the term "machine shop" came to encompass a broader range of manufacturing processes, from machining and fabricating to assembly and repairs. Today, machine shops continue to play a vital role in industrial production, where specialized equipment and skilled labor are essential for high-quality, precision manufacturing.
