In this study, the rolling technique of aluminum alloy was investigated, and the effects of deformation temperature on the edge cracks and mechanical properties of aluminum alloy were studied through a hot compression experiment on high magnesium aluminum alloy. Based on the test, DEFORM-3D software was introduced to optimize the selection of the influence conditions of the experiment. The research results suggested that the crack length of the as-cast aluminum alloy samples decreased with the increase of temperature when the deformation temperature was between 300 °C and 450 °C; the tensile strength and elongation after fracture increased with the increase of temperature when the deformation temperature was between 300 °C and 500 °C. Therefore it is concluded that the cracks of high magnesium aluminum alloy can be reduced through controlling deformation temperature, which provides an idea for the optimization of aluminium alloy.
