The journal accepts scientific articles in English and Turkish via the DergiPark system. The article evaluation period is approximately 3 months.
Manufacturing Technologies and Applications (MATECA) journal publishes original research and review articles.
MATECA follows guides and politics published by Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) for ethical rules and responsibilities of authors, journal editors/subject editors, reviewers and publisher.
Plagiarism Check
Articles submitted to Manufacturing Technologies and Applications (MATECA), are evaluated after passing through the Plagiarism Detection Program “ithenticate”. The similarity rate limit is 20% at most, excluding references. The article that is not found suitable as a result of the preliminary evaluation is sent to the author(s) again for the necessary corrections without being evaluated.
Pre-checking the Manuscript by Author
The article submitted by the author must not have been previously published and submitted for evaluation to any journal.
The submission file must be in Microsoft Word document file format.
URLs of references should be provided where available.
The text should be prepared according to rules specified in the author’s guide.
Blind Referee Process
Manufacturing Technologies and Applications (MATECA) is a peer-reviewed academic journal in which scientific articles passed through the double-blind peer-review process are published.
For review of submitted manuscripts, at least two referees are appointed by the editor (s) according to the content of the work and the expertise of the referees. All referee evaluation reports are sent electronically and anonymously. The names of the referees who made the assessment are not specified in the reports and in the journal due to the double blind process. However, after the evaluations, a letter of appreciation is sent to the referees.
Blind refereeing processes directly affect the quality of academic publications. The evaluation process is carried out with the principle of double-sided blind review. Referees cannot contact the authors directly, evaluation and referee reports are sent through the e-mail management system. In this process, evaluation forms and referee reports are sent to the author(s) by the editor. Double-sided blind reviewing helps editors make decisions in an impartial manner to the authors. Authors also have the opportunity to improve their work by obtaining important information about their work.
Decision Making Process
The editors and the publisher send all works submitted for publication to at least two referees who are experts in their fields for evaluation. In case of a dispute between the referees, a third referee is appointed and the article is decided according to the majority’s decision. Evaluation forms filled in by the referees and corrections on the text, if they prefer, are sent to the authors by contacting the responsible author. The final corrected file from the author is re-evaluated by the referees and the field editor, and it is decided whether the study will be published or not.
Privacy
Studies sent to the referees for evaluation should be considered as confidential documents. Studies should not be shown to others and their contents should not be discussed. Where necessary, referees may seek advice from other colleagues, with the permission of the Chief Editor. The Editor-in-Chief can give this permission only in the event of an exceptional condition. The confidentiality rule also includes people who refuse to act as reviewers.
Impartiality Principle
No personal criticism should be made to the authors during the evaluation process. Evaluations should be made in an objective and contributing way.
Citation of Reference
The referees are obliged to inform the authors if there are any citations that are not cited in the study. Referees should pay particular attention to works that are not cited in the field or citations that overlap with similar works. The referees should inform the editors in the event of publication that is similar to any previously published work or information.
Information and Conflict of Interest
Referees should not agree to evaluate if they have any collaborative connections with any author, company or institution for which they are asked for evaluating their work, and should inform editors of the situation as soon as possible.
Referees may not use unpublished works or parts of works in the manuscripts submitted to the journal without the written consent of the author(s) for evaluation. The information and ideas obtained during the evaluation should be kept confidential by the referees and should not be used for their own benefit. These rules include those who do not accept the reviewing.
Publication Language
Manufacturing Technologies and Applications (MATECA) reviews research articles written in Turkish and English.

Alan Editörleri
Dr. Mozammel Mia, currently serving as Associate Professor in BBS, has an academic and research focus on manufacturing and business informatics. With a long track record academic and research success, he is now more oriented towards nationally impactful contributions.
Awarded with the prestigious Commonwealth Scholarship for his Ph.D. in the UK at Imperial College London, he worked on Manufacturing Informatics that has opened a new wing of research combining the data-driven approach with fundamental investigation and modelling in the field of wear-and-friction. Since then, he is more inclined to data-driven research approaches for manufacturing and business informatics with national and industrial impact.
In early years, Dr. Mia's research contributions were notably focused on manufacturing processes, optimization of production systems, process sustainability, smart and intelligent manufacturing. His research theme includes employment of experimental, simulation, and modeling approaches to advance the understanding of scientific and engineering aspects. He has enriched himself with active collaborations on different research projects with esteemed scholars from multi-countries and continents. This indicates his capability to team work with diverse people and bring outstanding success.
The success of his students in national and international domains i.e., award-winning projects, admission to the top universities for higher studies, placements in big companies, starting their own business or it be scientific publication - all of these testify his teaching and supervision success that further inspires him to add more value for students.
