Arcane engine
An arcane engine generally describes a device or process that produces or amplifies arcane magic energy, often by converting other forms of energy,123 similar to how a mechanical engine converts other forms of energy into mechanical energy. It does not describe a single type, design, or function, but rather a class of such devices.4
