Creating a Daemon Engine requires that the entity be summoned by one who has knowledge of such things, such as a Chaos [[Warpsmith]], [[sorcerer]] or priest. The Daemon is summoned into the hull of the machine so that the corruption spreads throughout its circuits, gaining complete control of all functions.{{Cite This}} The complex process also involves the creation of [[Weapon-slave]]s.{{Fn|14}}
Daemons can also be bound to static weapon system like artillery guns, potentially breaking free of their shackles and killing indiscriminately until placated.{{Fn|16a}} If such a gun is destroyed, the bound daemon is unleashed, creating [[psychic]] shockwaves in its rage, before disappearing into the sky.{{Fn|16b}}
