Strojné

Strojné is a Slovak adjective meaning related to machines or mechanical in nature. It is used in technical and industrial contexts to describe equipment, processes, or design aspects that involve machinery rather than organic or manual methods. The term frequently appears in compound phrases such as strojné zariadenia (machinery), strojné vybavenie (machine equipment), and strojné procesy (machine-based processes).

Grammatical note: strojné is the neuter plural form of the adjective derived from stroj (machine) with the suffix -né. Other gender forms exist (for example strojný for masculine singular). The form must agree with the noun it modifies.

Usage and scope: In engineering, manufacturing, and automation, strojné often designates equipment or methods driven by machines rather than by human or organic processes. It can also describe components in mechanical design and production planning.

Relation to related terms: The word is distinct from automatic (automatický) or robotic (robotický) in that it emphasizes machinery as such, rather than the control logic or level of automation. It is part of a broader vocabulary for describing industrial and technical settings in Slovak.
