Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Precision manufacturing and machine tools play a crucial role in the production of high-quality, intricate, and accurate components and products across various industries. The primary goal of precision manufacturing is to produce parts or products that meet or exceed specified dimensions, surface finishes, and quality standards. This approach is essential in industries where precision is critical, such as aerospace, automotive, medical devices, electronics, and more. Precision manufacturing relies on the use of advanced machine tools to create products with exceptional accuracy and consistency. Precision machine tools are essential for achieving the tight tolerances and high accuracy demanded by precision manufacturing. Machine tools are typically equipped with various tools and attachments that can be swapped out to perform different operations. They are often used in conjunction with CAD and CAM software to design parts and generate toolpaths for machining.

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.
