About the Journal
Message from the Editor-in-Chief
Journal of Manufacturing and Materials Processing
(JMMP)(ISSN 2504-4494) is a new MDPI peer-reviewed,
Journal of open access venue with a focus on the scientific
fundamentals and engineering methodologies of
Manufacturing manufacturing and materials processing. We offer an
online platform facilitating effective exchange of
and Materials innovative scientific and engineering ideas and the
Processing dissemination of recent, original, and significant
research and developmental findings. On behalf of the
Editorial Board, I extend an invitation to our scientific
and engineering colleagues to contribute high-quality,
an Open Access Journal innovative, and ground-breaking research articles to
by MDPI JMMP.
