The development of precision and ultra-precision manufacturing processes results from a growing demand for reduced mass and dimensions of manufactured products of the highest surface quality and dimensional accuracy, while reducing production costs. Today, the main application area of these techniques involves the production of elements made of titanium alloys and stainless steels, intended for the biomedical industry, such as bone and joint implants and parts for the neurovascular system. These technologies are also used in the production of microelectrodes, as well as microforms from hardened alloy steels and elements of bio-microelectromechanical systems (bio-MEMS). The extreme requirement towards a surface quality constitutes the fundamental objective of precision and ultra-precision manufacturing processes. Therefore, the recognition of a specific physical phenomenon occurring during these techniques, as well as the selection of input parameters enabling simultaneous improvement of a machined surface quality, together with a process stability and tool life, are of high scientific importance.\u00a0This Special Issue provides an excellent opportunity for researchers who are studying and working in the area of precision and ultraprecision manufacturing techniques.vIt is our pleasure to invite you to submit original research papers, short communications or state-of-the-art reviews which are within the scope of this Special Issue. Contributions can range from novel approaches in precision and ultraprecision manufacturing, the analysis and modeling of process mechanics, and measurements of physical phenomena during manufacturing processes to evaluation of surface integrity.
