According to Blizzard's article on the Infernal Machine:

To craft the Infernal Machine, players will first need to collect four components from powerful Keywardens in each Act of Inferno:

  • The Key of Destruction will drop from Odeg the Keywarden in Act I - Fields of Misery
  • The Key of Hate will drop from Sokahr the Keywarden in Act II - Dahlgur Oasis
  • The Key of Terror will drop from Xah'Rith the Keywarden in Act III - Stonefort
  • The Blacksmithing Plans will drop from Nekarat the Keywarden in Act IV - Silver Spire Level 1

Note that these only drop in Inferno, and you need a full five stacks of Valor. So while the KeyWardens will show up in easier difficulties, they won't drop them.

Additionally, each level of Monster Power present will increase the chance of the key dropping by 10%, so at MP10, each Keywarden is guaranteed a drop.

The plans are taught to your blacksmith, and only are needed once. After that, you just need the keys from the previous three acts, as using the Infernal Machine consumes it.
