Abstract: Several constructed models have already been introduced in the tube hydroforming process which are great resorts to develop forming and quality improvement. However, in the tube hydroforming process, digital twin implementation can increase the quality of the product by inline monitoring as the digital twin is a virtual representation of the physical object and provides insights into performance, behavior, and conditions. In this paper, for a case study, a 350-ton hydraulic press machine was used as a physical twin with a symmetric die to deform the tube blank into the die shape. The real-time punch displacement, and internal pressure data were acquired by the sensors installed, and based on that monitoring and comparing of the parameters was done based on LabVIEW with the optimized loading path. The press and process digital twin uses finite element modeling to predict maximum and minimum thickness and optimization results show that 19% of maximum thickness was achieved
