Results of researches of process of hot rolling of ingots from the experimental aluminum alloy which is economically alloyed by scandium are given. The computer model of process of hot rolling with the use of which the straining, temperature and speed processing modes conditions is calculated and also power parameters of processing is calculated in applied to industrial conditions. It is shown that the use in the model of a certain shape of the ingot faces (Petrov's lock) and indirect rolling action in the edging stand is made it possible to reduce the likelihood of the formation and further development of micro cracks on the edges of rolled metal. The adequacy of results of modeling was confirmed by carrying out pilot-industrial tests when rolling large-size ingots from the experimental alloy and obtaining batches of hot-rolled plates and sheets of various sizes. The tensile test was used to study deformed samples after rolling and samples obtained on five regimes of heat treatment with varying heating temperatures of 300, 350 and 380 oС and holding time in the furnace for 1 and 3 hours. The results of the studies on samples of hot-rolled sheets 10 mm thick showed that, compared with the initial state, the strength characteristics of the metal after heat treatment are reduced by an average of 12-20%, and plastic characteristics increase by 50-65%. In this case, the heat treatment regimes 1 - 3 give a good ratio of the ductility and plastic properties of the metal.

The results of studies of the combined processing of alloys of the Al-Mg-Sc system with known rheological properties under various temperature-rate and deformation conditions are presented. A computer model of the combined machining process was created and the DEFORM 3D complex was used to analyze the metal flow, the distribution of the strain rate and the temperature of the metal over the cross section of the workpiece when receiving round bars of various diameters. The results of the research were used to develop the production technology of welding wire from alloys of the Al-Mg-Sc system.
