This journal seems pretty good; the reviewers are very thorough, and the submission cycle is pretty fast. Fortunately, it seems my paper will be published as long as I very carefully address all of the reviewer comments.

Trash journal, dropped from tier three to tier four. Originally wanted to withdraw the submission, but the webpage showed it had already been sent for external review. Decided to leave it be, only to receive an email two months later stating that it did not fit the journal's scope and was rejected. What a waste of time, even the status of being sent for external review was fake?

The direction is precision manufacturing, and the overall process of the journal is very slow, taking about 9 months. Please consider the time carefully when submitting.

I don't know how long it took to be sent for review, but after submission, it has been in peer review in process for some time. Please be patient.

23-Mar-2025 Major Revision

Once again, after a long wait, I have forgotten what this article is about. The key is how it was downgraded. This journal is very authoritative in the field of mechanical and manufacturing design articles. Many articles from Harbin Institute of Technology and Xi'an Jiaotong University have been submitted. Is it because the number of submissions is too low?

How long does it take for submission to be sent for review? Why has it been in the "submitted" status for so long?

(0) Thank | serd34

It has been four and a half months since submission, and it is still in the process of peer review. It's really slow!!!

Update! The 11th of September brought a major revision, and believe it or not, I found 6 reviewers! I will definitely revise it well and strive for a smooth acceptance. I'm crying, really worried that I won't graduate.

After accepting, it will display "Awaiting Production Checklist", then the editor will send an email requesting a Word document, images, and a cover page. May I ask how long it will take to retrieve?
