The experiment of the rheocasting-rolling for semi-solid magnesium was carried out on the equipment made by ourselves in our laboratory. Semi-solid AZ91D magnesium slurry was prepared by cooling slope and the evolution of microstructure under different technological parameters such as pouring temperature, casting temperature, standing time, angle of slope and length of slope et al were studied. The results show that the technological parameters have great influence on the microstructure of the semi-solid magnesium slurry. The results show that the optimum parameters of slope method were: pouring temperature 630 degrees；angle of slope 60°；length of slope 0.570m.

Analysis on microstructure of semi-solid AZ31B magnesium alloy produced under different technological parameters were done, hot rolling experiments of AZ31B magnesium alloy semi-solid strips were carried out on the rheocasting-rolling machine which was developed by ourselves. The result shows that the strips after the rheocasting-rolling of AZ31B semi-solid magnesium alloy have good plasticity and rolling properties, this offers theory basis for reprocessing of AZ31B.

Numerical method was used to simulate the solidification process of zinc-aluminum alloy Zamak 5, shrinkage porosity of the zinc-aluminum alloy ingot with big diameter (114mm) was simulated using the shrinkage criterion, orthogonal test was designed to analysis the influence of different casting parameters as casting temperature, preheating temperature of the mold and the heat transfer coefficient between the mold and the environment. The result shows that the shrinkage value was minimal when the casting temperature was 480, the preheating temperature was 200 and the heat transfer coefficient was 200.
