Abstract
Sustainable manufacturing is the creation of products using technologies capable of decoupling the factors that may adversely affect the environment. One such technology is thin film coating, extensively used for various commercial applications. Achieving energy and resource efficiency, cost reduction, short process chain of manufacturing and long life for tools and products are some of the benefits of using thin film coatings. This technology significantly contributes to strengthening all three pillars, that is, environment, economy and society of sustainability. This special issue aims to highlight some of the critical application areas of thin film coatings under sustainable manufacturing, focusing on machining.
