This paper highlights the basic characteristics of magnesium related to forming at elevated temperatures. The paper is divided into three sections. In the first section basic characteristics and applications of magnesium alloys are discussed, after then the focus is diverted to pre-processing and post-processing parameters including punch force, blank holder force, texture conditions, thickness and temperature distributions during forming, and springback effects. In the last section improvements in formability are highlighted by referring to forming limit diagrams to compare magnesium’s performances with other alloys. By summarizing all these pre-processing and post-processing parameters directions are established to improve the formability of magnesium and guidance is provided for future research in this area.
