Another two possibilities:

Relinux (a fork of Remastersys).

Or, what I do to clone a machine, is copy the entire disk with CloneZilla and clone the disk. Ubuntu is good at automatically reconfiguring when it finds itself on new hardware. There is one change you would have to make in three different files on each machine that you have cloned:

Change the computer name in /etc/hostname, /etc/hosts and /etc/samba/smb.conf (otherwise you will have conflicts on the network).
