The　focus　of　this　work　is　to　investigate　the　control　strategy　of　twist　springback　of　an　industrial　aluminium　alloy　extruded　tube　after　mandrel-rotary　draw　bending,　which　is　a　complex　nonlinear　physical　process　with　coupling　multi-factor　interactive　effects.　A　particularly　pronounced　twist　springback　characteristic　of　an　AA6060-T4　hybrid　thin-walled　bent　tube　was　observed.　It　leads　to　difficulty　at　the　assembly　stage　due　to　the　inaccurate　geometry　of　product.　For　an　accurate　modelling　of　material　behaviours,　a　non-quadratic　anisotropic　yield　criterion　integrated　with　combined　isotropic　and　kinematic　hardening　model　was　adopted　to　describe　the　strain-stress　behaviours　including　anisotropy,　Bauschinger　effects　and　permanent　softening.　The　corresponding　mechanical　tests,　e.g.,　enhanced　forward-reverse　simple　shear　tests,　were　performed　to　identify　the　material　parameters.　By　using　the　improved　and　validated　finite　element　model,　two　process　control　strategies　related　to　the　mandrel　nose　placement　and　the　axial　push　assistant　loading　are　proposed　for　the　assessment　of　the　control　efficiency.　The　simulation　results　indicate　that　the　mandrel　nose　placement　mainly　affects　the　longitudinal　angular　springback　but　not　twist　deformation　in　the　circumferential　sections.　The　angular　springback　angle　firstly　increases　and　then　decreases　after　several　tests　of　forward　mandrel　nose　placement.　The　other　control　strategy,　additional　axial　push　assistant　loading　with　high　boost,　is　able　to　reduce　twist　deformation,　but　the　compensation　of　angular　springback　is　not　attained　and　even　a　slight　increase　is　observed.　It　also　leads　to　the　rise　of　the　of　wrinkle　tendency　in　the　intrados　sidewall.　Finally,　the　wipe　die　rake　is　put　forward　to　reduce　the　wrinkle　tendency　due　to　the　high　boost　applied　for　twist　control.　©　2017,　Springer-Verlag　France.
