The phrase "a machine that performs" is correct and usable in written English.
You can use it when describing the function or capability of a machine in various contexts, such as technology, engineering, or automation.
Example: "The new robot is a machine that performs complex tasks with precision and speed."
Alternatives: "a device that executes" or "an apparatus that carries out".
The heart is a machine that performs as well as its cared for.
And I will do it with a machine that performs a task far less efficiently that I could with a rake".
