la operación de la máquina consiste en/incluya/implica períodos de ESPERA y OPERACIÓN
Explanation:
I wouldn't use "descansar" - machines don't rest, people do. The typical phrase is "en espera". In English we usually say "the machine is in idle mode" or "the machine is on standby"

the machine operates with rest time and operating time
la máquina opera por períodos de reposo y de funcionamiento


Explanation:
Cuando una máquina se para para arreglar se le dice: parada de máquina, cuando para por lapsos se le dice reposo
Luego vuelve a activarse o funcionar, también se dice a operar normalmente.
No está bien decir "opera EN períodos de reposo, porque sería una contradicción lingüística (cómo podría operar "en reposo"?)
