Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to invite you to publish original contributions in the area of metallic materials machining. Machining directly plays a pivotal role in manufacturing, which significantly affects socioeconomic development by increasing the environmental, material, energy and labour efficiency of products. A specific characteristic of machining, in comparison with other technologies, is the achievement of the most accurate dimensions and the ability to process all hitherto known materials.
Progress in the technology of machining is achieved by worldwide theoretical and practical works in the many-dimensional professional subject under the pressure of a wide range of needs and requirements of the market. The subject covers synergically interconnected areas of machining theory and technology, machine tools, cutting tools, machined materials, metrology, surface engineering, vibro-diagnostics, manufacturing strategy, ecology and life cycle assessment, among others. Research in the machining area is very important for understanding physical principles, building a knowledge base, innovation in industry and business, and improving environmental conditions.
This Special Issue aims to detail theoretical and practical results of metallic materials for cutting tool and machined workpiece.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. It is envisaged that the issue will serve as a forum for publishing contributions which advance in-depth understanding of the relationship between the structure, properties and functions of machined and tooled metallic materials. There will be no restriction on the length of the papers such that the full experimental details should be provided.
Specific research areas of interest for this Special Issue may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Advances in machining of metallic materials
- Theoretical and practical achievements in machining of materials
- Material preparation methods
- Chip formation
- Machinability
- Physical manifestations of machining
- Surface integrity
- Structural alternations
- Machining of special materials
- Special machining methods
- Advances in tool materials
- Theoretical and practical achievements in machining tool materials
- Material preparation methods
- Treatment and coatings
- Wear mechanisms
- Tool life

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. Metals 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 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.
