3.2CiteScore 2025 64%Cites 2025 70MNiSW 0.411SJR 2025 0.758SNIP 2025 Journal of Machine Engineering (JMachEng) is an international scientific quarterly devoted to current issues relating to product innovative design and manufacturing, holistic modelling, and behaviour improvement through simulations and testing, aided by innovative computer techniques, AI tools, intelligent procedures and state-of-the-art advanced computer control systems, for the efficient precision machining of products according to the current global market demands. It favours solutions harmonizing with the up-to-date manufacturing strategies and the quality requirements and needs of production process design, planning, scheduling and management. The Journal's range of topics also covers the design and improvement of the operation and maintenance of highly efficient precision machines, processes and service systems, the development of control systems for manufacturing machines and processes and the development of software, especially software which significantly enhances the multicriterial performance of machining processes, supporting design development and autonomy implementation. The Journal publishes primarily papers concerning the design, R&D and operation of innovative production machines, mainly machine tools and their units, but also papers on the development of high-performance manufacturing processes and systems and their real-time diagnosing, monitoring and servicing. Special attention is paid to research on the modelling, numerical simulation and optimization of machining modules, as well as on intelligent forms of the design and high-performance operation of conventional, unconventional, HSC and nanotechnology precision production machines, processes and manufacturing systems. Papers dealing with forming technology and additive manufacturing and the development of relevant practical applications are also welcome. Moreover, the Journal publishes papers on the development and optimization of manufacturing process planning, online monitoring and robust control, real-time distortions recognition, and errors limitation, compensation and self-compensation using advanced self-learning procedures. The Journal is a continuation of “Machine Engineering” published in the years 2001-2005. Up to 2005 each issue of the latter was devoted to a different topic. Since then the Journal has been more open, covering a broad range of topics, being not limited to one topic per issue. The papers
