Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Ultra-precision machining is a multi-disciplinary research area, which forms the backbone and support of today’s innovative technology industries, including optoelectronics, aerospace, optics, and biomedical engineering. With the rapid development of these industries, surface quality requirements of manufacturing products become more and more stringent. In order to make the surface finishing adapt to this new situation, the exploration of new mechanisms and technologies has become a great interest of research. This Special Issue aims to publish original research and review articles in the field of " Future Trends in Ultra-Precision Machining". Papers on new theories, techniques, and applications in the fields of ultra-precision machining are welcome. Suitable topics include but are not limited to new mechanisms of processes involving material removal, the scientific development of new processes, surface topography measurement, and novel concepts in ultra-precision machining supported by modelling and experiments. We also welcome scholars in related fields to contribute their latest research results to this Special Issue.

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. Micromachines 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.
