Aims and Scope
Machines (ISSN 2075-1702) is an international, peer-reviewed journal on machinery and engineering. It publishes research articles, reviews and communications. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. Full experimental and/or methodical details must be provided. There are, in addition, unique features of this journal:
● manuscripts regarding research proposals and research ideas will be particularly welcomed
● electronic files or software regarding the full details of the calculation and experimental procedure - if unable to be published in a normal way - can be deposited as supplementary material

Verified Reviews
Revisions were completed in mid-April, but due to the addition of a small experiment and two additional authors, the editor asked multiple times to exclude the external advisor and stated that the advisor only helped polish the paper, so they should be acknowledged. Overall, the process took 1.5 months.
This journal seems to be quite strict, requiring innovative contributions! Could it be that they give low warnings because they receive a large number of submissions? The efficiency of the editor is commendable!
Opinions for major revisions were received on December 28, 2022. There were three reviewers, and some questions were difficult to answer.
