A liquidation engine is an automated system within a decentralized finance protocol that liquidates undercollateralized loans. This smart contract mechanism monitors loan positions and automatically sells collateral when its value drops below a predefined threshold, ensuring lenders can recover their funds. It is a critical component for maintaining the solvency and stability of collateralized lending platforms. The engine operates autonomously based on oracle price feeds.
