The algorithm for designing the mining face machines, which main methodical assumption is treating the machine as if it was a part of a complex face mechanization system were presented. Criteria for evaluation of the quality of machine, such as its efficiency, reliability, durability, etc., should be extended by economical criteria. They enable to verify the solution usefulness for the user in specified operational conditions, from the realized economical target point of view. In a design process it is important to take into account the relations between designed machine and other parts of the face mechanization system. Strict requirements of the users and degree of development of technical solutions as well as the costs cause that it is not enough to treat them as if they were only the visibility studies for the machine which is designed. Complete integration of a design process of the machine and machinery system is indispensable.
