Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The pursuit of ultra-high precision and efficiency in modern manufacturing demands continuous innovation in machine tool design, fabrication, and application. This Special Issue focuses on cutting-edge technologies in precision machine tool development, including high-stiffness structural design, thermal error compensation, vibration suppression, advanced control systems, and smart monitoring. Additionally, it explores their applications in critical sectors such as aerospace, automotives, microelectronics, and medical device manufacturing.
We invite original research and reviews addressing challenges in machining accuracy, dynamic performance optimization, energy-efficient machining, and digital twin integration. Contributions may cover theoretical advances, experimental validations, or industrial case studies.
This issue aims to foster discussions on emerging trends, such as AI-driven process optimization and sustainable precision manufacturing, providing a platform for researchers and engineers to share breakthroughs.
You may choose our Joint Special Issue in Journal of Manufacturing and Materials Processing.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Machines is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
