At present, our country automation technology has got the rapid development with the continuous improvement of science and technology, the continuous development of automation technology is also an important technical condition to meet the arrival of intelligent machinery manufacturing. Now intelligent has become the main trend in the future development of machinery manufacturing technology. Driven by the era of intelligent mechanical engineering, The 5th International Conference on Mechanical Engineering, Intelligent Manufacturing and Automation Technology (MEMAT 2024) with greater international influence will be held in Nanjing, China from December 13 to 15, 2024. MEMAT 2024 is to bring together innovative academics and industrial experts in the field of Mechanical Engineering, Intelligent Manufacturing and Automation Technology to a common forum. The primary goal of the conference is to promote research and developmental activities in engineering materials, manufacturing technology and another goal is to promote scientific information interchange between researchers, developers, engineers, students, and practitioners working all around the world. The conference will be held every year to make it an ideal platform for people to share views and experiences in Mechanical Engineering, Intelligent Manufacturing, Automation Technology and related areas.
