Manufacturing Technology, Materials and Methods

Dear Colleagues,

Manufacturing technologies accompany human beings in many spheres of life. The aim of continuous improvement of products manufactured with various technologies is to achieve production sustainability and cost-effective manufacturing. Knowledge about the processes, materials, and technologies used, as well as the evaluation of the phenomena arising in the process and their impact on the technology approach used is an important feature in the entire production chain.

This Special Issue of Materials deals with analyses applied in various manufacturing technologies, studies of the phenomena accompanying manufacturing processes, as well the use of engineering tools in manufacturing processes.

Your contributions could be of great importance for understanding and solving challenges facing exerts and researchers daily. Manuscripts should be related to the machining of metals and alloys, cold metal processing, welding, production and analysis of polymers and composites, issues related to the research of tools and tooling systems, topics related to surface engineering, coordinate measuring, reverse engineering, as well as accompanying phenomena manufacturing processes such as friction and wear.

It is our pleasure to invite you to submit a manuscript for this Special Issue of the Materials. Articles, reviews, and communications are also all welcome.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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.
