Journal Introduction

The Journal of Precision Materials and Manufacturing (JPMM, ISSN 3136-2907) is an international, open-access, peer-reviewed journal dedicated to advancing the science and engineering of precision materials design and manufacturing, published quarterly online by EIVX Publishing Group. JPMM is founded on the dual pillars of precision in materials design precision and precision in engineering application, with a particular emphasis on cross-scale precise mapping. The journal seeks to systematically establish a bidirectional, closed-loop relationship between design intent and manufacturing realization. By bringing global expertise in advanced materials, processing technologies, characterization methods, and intelligent, sustainable manufacturing, JPMM serves as a premier platform for the integration of materials genome engineering with advanced manufacturing processes. The journal explicitly research in which precision is addressed as a fundamental scientific challenge, and does not consider purely empirical studies or routine optimization work. JPMM’s immediate objectives include inclusion in major international indexing databases and maintaining a stable position within the JCR Q1 category. The journal aspires to become a globally recognized flagship publication, supporting national and international strategies for technological self-reliance and manufacturing excellence.
