Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the significant adjustment of global manufacturing models and industrial patterns, new manufacturing models with intelligent manufacturing as their core feature are gradually emerging. Intelligent manufacturing is not only a trend in the future development of the manufacturing industry, but also a factor shaping the world's manufacturing industry. At present, advanced manufacturing is developing towards high speed, high precision, automation, intelligence, networking, and intelligent computerized manufacturing. On the one hand, manufacturing technology is moving towards intelligence, and more and more manufacturing technologies are based on intelligence, such as intelligent monitoring, intelligent diagnosis, intelligent decisionmaking, and intelligent control in the manufacturing process. Meanwhile, an increasing number of new machine tools have intelligent functions, including intelligent machine tool components, greatly improving processing efficiency and quality.
This is a call for papers for a Special Issue on "Smart Machining and Machine Tools". This Special Issue will provide a venue for scholars and researchers to share their most recent theoretical and technical successes, as well as to highlight key topics and difficulties for future study in the field. The submitted papers are expected to present original ideas and potential contributions to theory and practice. Possible research topics include, but are not limited to:
- Smart machining;
- Intelligent monitoring in the manufacturing process;
- Intelligent diagnosis in the manufacturing process;
- Intelligent decision-making in the manufacturing process;
- Intelligent control in the manufacturing process;
- Intelligent machine tools;
- Intelligent machine tool components.
