Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Extrusion, wire drawing, forging, rolling, plastic forming of metals, turning, milling, drilling, additive manufacturing, welding, and metal casting are all important mechanical and metallurgical manufacturing processes used in the mechanical and metallurgical industries. Studying, researching, and understanding the metallurgical, physical–mechanical, chemical, and tribological factors and behaviours that influence—“positively” or “negatively”—the processing of metallic materials when they are under these metallurgical and mechanical industrial manufacturing processes are important to improve their chemical, metallurgical, mechanical, and tribological performance.
Thus, this Special Issue, titled “Production and Industrial Engineering in Metal Processing”, aims to curate novel advances related to metallurgical and mechanical industrial manufacturing processes, involving the metallurgical and mechanical analysis of metallic materials submitted to plastic forming, machining, and additive manufacturing, in addition to factors related to corrosion, tribological behaviours, as well as the use of modeling and simulation. The topics of interest for this Special Issue include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Extrusion process;
- Wire drawing process;
- Forging process;
- Rolling process;
- Plastic deformation of metals—general aspects;
- Turning process;
- Milling process;
- Drilling process;
- Additive manufacturing;
- Welding process;
- Metal casting process;
- Tribological aspects related to mechanical processes of manufacturing;
- Industrial lubrication.

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. Processes 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 2400 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.
