It is a great privilege for us to present the proceedings of the 4th International and 19th National in the series of biennial conferences on Machines and Mechanisms (iNaCoMM 2019) organized under the aegis of Association for Machines and Mechanisms (AMM) and International Federation for the Promotion of Mechanism and Machine Science (IFToMM) to be held at Indian Institute of technology Mandi, India, during 57 December 2019.

iNaCoMM 2019 aims to provide a platform for discussing the issues, challenges, opportunities and findings of various aspects of design and analysis of machines and mechanisms by bringing together academicians, researchers, industry experts and students who are working in these domains. This conference has been a good opportunity for participants coming from different parts of the country to present and discuss the practical challenges encountered and the solutions adopted in their respective research areas.

The responses to the call-for-papers had been overwhelming. Unfortunately, many papers from reputed institutions could not be accepted due to the reviewing outcomes. We would like to express our acknowledgment and appreciation to the reviewers who helped us in maintaining the high quality of manuscripts by making valuable suggestions for the authors. We would also like to extend our thanks to the members of the organizing team for their hard work.

The deliberations in the conference consist of plenary sessions and keynote lectures by the leading experts and oral and poster presentations by the delegates on a wide range of topics in the field of machines and mechanisms. The exuberant programme will result in extensive exchange of information and networking among participants on the new technologies, as well as thorough discussions of the trends and driving forces in the field.
