Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Laser processing technology is a new type of green advanced manufacturing technology, which has obvious advantages over traditional mechanical processing. Its processing method is non-contact, with low energy consumption, high environmental benefits, fast processing speed, low noise, small thermal impact, and strong adaptability. It can process ultra-high hardness, high brittleness, and high melting point materials, and can realize automatic control in precision processing, complex structure processing Batch automatic production and other fields have obvious advantages, and are recognized as "the common processing means of the future manufacturing system".
This Special Issue will include original scientific papers which describe new engineering materials and technological processes of the manufacturing, processing, and formation of their structure and properties in the whole volume and their surface, as well as the description of phenomena and phase transformations appearing in those materials. It will encourage the submission of new fundamental and interdisciplinary contributions on laser manufacturing of the materials science and engineering, surface engineering, and general advances in material technologies.
This Special Issue will focus on the new founding of the laser manufature processes.

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. Materials is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2600 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.
