This paper addresses the formability of magnesium extrusions with respect to rotary-draw bending and hydro-mechanical forming, presenting an outline of the equipment and establishing process windows for selected wrought magnesium alloys. Working temperatures decisively affect forming and must receive due consideration in process and product design.
