The classification features of technological technical systems, the further development of the theory of the working process are given. The classification features are determined. Only the classification features that determine their purpose and the nature of the work they perform are considered. An assessment of the design and technological parameters of the existing technical systems of industrial engineering has been carried out. New and improved evaluation criteria have been used. Reliable assessment and analysis made it possible to formulate more reasonably methods for solving the problem. Continuously improving, the technology leaves a reflection on the directions of development of technical system designs. On the basis of this, working hypotheses were formulated, the essence of which lies in modeling the medium and technical system as a single system with their own dynamic individuality. The system «technical system -medium» is represented by a complex hybrid (mixed) dynamic system, in which the technical system is a system with discrete parameters, and the medium is with distributed parameters, and this system is reduced to the calculated one in the form of a system with discrete parameters.
