Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the context of the rapid development of modern manufacturing, advanced machining technologies play a pivotal role in enhancing the precision, efficiency, and sustainability of material processing. The latest innovations in these technologies continuously break traditional limitations by integrating intelligent control, digital management, and novel tools and equipment, enabling the efficient processing of a wide range of materials including metals, ceramics, and composites. In-depth research into the relationship between machining parameters and material properties not only optimizes production processes but also provides the scientific foundation and practical guidance necessary for achieving green manufacturing.
This Special Issue of Materials titled "Latest Developments in Advanced Machining Technologies for Materials" is designed to showcase cutting-edge advancements in the field, with a particular focus on key technologies such as hybrid machining, micro/nano machining, laser-assisted machining, and digital manufacturing. We cordially invite researchers and engineering experts to submit their contributions, exploring both the practical applications and future trends of advanced machining technologies and fostering continuous innovation and progress in material 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. 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.
