Abstract: \nThis article is about choosing the right machine tool equipment when you're introducing modular technology into engineering production. The objective was to analyze possible solutions and choose the optimal option. We will consider two variants: the first is the creation of new machine tools for the production of surface modules, and the second is the use of existing machine tools. The second option should be studied with traditional machine tools because it is associated with lower time and labor costs. Twenty machine tools of different types, commonly found in machine-building plants, were selected as the object of research. We used a special methodology to identify the technology of the machine tools. The work resulted in the determination of the nomenclature of surface modules produced for each machine tool. This proves that traditional machine tools are suitable for use in modular technology. The distribution of the number of types of surface modules by groups of machine tools clearly shows that all twenty-six types of surface modules can be produced on universal machine tools with program control, including 5-axis milling machines and lathe machining centers.\n
