Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to present groundbreaking developments in advanced manufacturing processes, precision manufacturing, and innovative material applications. The scope of this Special Issue includes high-performance machining techniques, additive and hybrid manufacturing, advanced coatings and tool materials, smart manufacturing, automation, and sustainable machining processes. We welcome experimental, theoretical, and computational studies that push the boundaries of modern machining and material sciences. A key aspect of these advancements is the development and application of innovative materials with superior properties. Therefore, this Special Issue aims to promote knowledge regarding the enhancement of machining efficiency via the achievement of exceptional hardness and wear resistance, improving the longevity of tools by reducing friction and thermal effects, and developing materials that offer high strength, corrosion resistance, and thermal stability. This Special Issue explores the interplay between material properties and manufacturing techniques, driving innovation toward more efficient, precise, and sustainable production.

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.
