If I'm not mistaken, there is no machine that can reduce friction. The machine is intended to change the distance the input force is applied over or to multiply the output force. The moving parts of the machine will always increase friction. In order to reduce the extra friction (but not completely remove it), one would use a lubricant or reduce the roughness between two surfaces.
Hope it helps.

Reducing friction in a machine increases or decreases?
Deceasing friction increases efficiency and reduces heat loss.
What describes the relationship between friction and IMA for a simple machine?
An ideal machine has no friction. -Nn
What factor affect the mechanical advantage of simple machine?
friction affects the M.A in a simple machine.
How is a ballpoint pen a simple machine?
The ball is a roller bearing. It reduces the friction as the pen point is slid across the paper. Quill pens use a rounded nib, but the ink distribution can be uneven.
Why it is important for you to reduce friction on compound machine?
Because too much friction can damage the simple machines that make up the compound machine.
Which force reduces the efficiency of machine?
Friction.

What is one way to overcome friction in a machine?
use lubricants it smoothens the surface and reduces the irregularity between both the surfaces resulting in reduction of friction
What is a good description of every simple machine?
Any thing that reduces human effort is simple machine whether it is a simple pulley or a complex machine. e.g. axel,gears,transformer,lathe etc,
What machine would experience no friction?
Ok I think that the answer would either be simple machine or compound machine but I'd double check first..
What simple machine reduces the amount of effort needed to lift a heavy object?
Lever Hoist
Does an ideal machine have friction?
Machine without any friction is an ideal machine so an ideal machine cannot have friction.
What happens to energy that seems to be lost due to friction in a simple machine?
It gets dissipated as heat
