Abstract Electromagnetic tube expansion has been extensively studied for its obvious advantages in lightweight alloy processing. Due to the reduction of wall thickness and the non-uniform deformation in axial direction, the development of the existing electromagnetic tube expansion has been restricted. In this paper, the method of electromagnetic tube expansion with axial compression is proposed, with which both the radial and the axial electromagnetic force are applied to decrease the reduction of wall thickness. The simulation results show that the reduction of wall thickness is reduced from 15.05% to 9.65%. Furthermore, the method of electromagnetic tube expansion with concave coil to weaken the electromagnetic force in the middle part is proposed to improve the tube forming performance. In the simulation, the maximum deformation is 36 mm, and it is obvious that the radial electromagnetic force produced by “concave” coil can effectively solve the problem of non-uniform tube deformation. The improvement of electromagnetism force loading can effectively solve problems in electromagnetic tube expansion and promote its industrial application.
