History

• CIRP Annals is published by Elsevier on behalf of CIRP, the International Academy for Production Engineering, which was founded in 1951.《CIRP 年刊》由（Elsevier）代表 1951 年成立的国际生产工程科学院（CIRP）出版。
• The annals have appeared under the title related to manufacturing technology since 1960.该年刊自 1960 年起以与制造技术相关的刊名出版。
• CIRP itself was originally named the International Institution for Production Engineering Research and adopted its present name in 2006.CIRP 原名国际生产工程研究会，2006 年改用现名。
• The academy has more than 600 academic and industrial members from fifty countries and ten scientific technical committees.该科学院拥有来自五十个国家的六百余名学术与工业界会员，下设十个科学技术委员会。
• Each year the journal appears in two volumes: Volume 1 carries roughly 120 to 140 refereed technical papers and Volume 2 about ten to twelve keynote papers.刊物每年出版两卷：第 1 卷收录约 120 至 140 篇经评审的技术论文，第 2 卷收录约 10 至 12 篇主旨论文。
• Volume 1 is published electronically each July and Volume 2 in August.第 1 卷于每年 7 月以电子版发布，第 2 卷于 8 月发布。
• From 2026 onward the journal accepts submissions from researchers without a CIRP affiliation for Issues 3 to 6 each year.自 2026 年起，刊物每年第 3 至第 6 期接受没有 CIRP 会籍的研究者投稿。
• Its 2025 Journal Impact Factor is 5.0, after 3.6 in 2024 and 4.482 in 2022, and it ranks in the first quartile of mechanical engineering.2025 年期刊影响因子为 5.0，此前 2024 年为 3.6、2022 年为 4.482，在机械工程类别中位列一区。

Editors

• The journal is directed by the editorial committee of CIRP rather than by a single external editor-in-chief.刊物由 CIRP 的编辑委员会负责，而非由单一外部主编主持。
• Sami Kara chaired the CIRP Editorial Committee for eight years until the General Assembly of August 2024.（Sami Kara）担任 CIRP 编辑委员会主席八年，至 2024 年 8 月全体大会为止。
• Under the editorial committee, a professional review process was introduced alongside the academy's traditional emphasis on scientific quality and collegiality.在编辑委员会之下，刊物引入了专业化评审流程，同时保持学会对科学质量与同侪精神的传统重视。
• Papers are typically initiated within CIRP's scientific technical committees, each covering a defined field of production engineering.论文通常由 CIRP 的科学技术委员会发起，每个委员会对应生产工程的一个既定领域。
• Technical papers and keynote papers follow separate evaluation criteria, with keynotes providing state-of-the-art surveys of a field.技术论文与主旨论文适用不同的评价标准，后者提供某一领域的最新综述。
• The journal has an h-index of about 202, reflecting the high citation density of its concise annual output.刊物 h 指数约为 202，反映其年度精炼产出的高被引密度。
