In mass customization mode, in order to select quickly and accurately the suitable machine tool in machining process design, we present an optimal selection method based on the machining capability element(MAE). We take the MAE as the smallest unit to describe machining capacity of machine tools; then, according to process machining requirements, we query the MAEs in MAE library. We do three things: (1)using interval valued FCM algorithm, we perform the quantitative analysis of machining capacities among different machine tools; (2)through computing the matching degree between process machining constraints on the one hand and cluster centers on the other, we get the most suitable MAE set for the process; (3)according to the correspondence between machine tools on the one hand and MAEs on the other, we get the most suitable MAE set for the process. Through case analysis, the rationality and validity of the proposed method were verified.
