Abstract

The article provides an overview of the most significant publications devoted to the problem of developing new technological processes in the production of high-quality semi-finished products from magnesium alloys. It has been determined that along with the search for sparingly alloyed compositions there is an active exploration of promising technological processes for the production of semi-finished products from magnesium alloys. These actions are accompanied by the search for original engineering solutions in the design and use of appropriate non-standard equipment.
