The Manufacturing Engineering Society International Conference (MESIC) was born under the patronage of the Manufacturing Engineering Society (SIF), to fulfil one of its founding objectives: the creation of forums for the exchange of experiences between researchers and professionals in the field of Manufacturing Engineering. Abstracts and full papers submitted to the MESIC 2021 should be written in English. Oral and poster presentations should be done in English as well.
