The bent tubes have been widely used in many high-end industries such as aviation, aerospace, shipbuilding, automobile, energy and health care. The tube bending has become one of the key manufacturing technologies for lightweight product forming. Via the analysis of bending characteristics and multiple defects, advances on exploring the common issues in tube bending are summarized regarding wrinkling instability at the intrados, wall thinning （cracking） at the extrados, springback phenomenon, cross-section deformation, forming limit and process/ tooling design/optimization.
