Grain refinements during hot compression of continuous casting AZ80 alloy bars and extrusive AZ61, AZ80 alloy bars were observed. The hot compression true stress-true strain curves of extrusive AZ61 and AZ80 alloy had similar tendencies, which were that the true stress increased and had a peak around 0.2 true strain, and then the stress decreased and was almost even from about 0.4 true strain. The stress peaks shifted to the high strain side as the compression speed, true strain speed, increased. However, the stress peaks did not shift at different compression temperatures. Fine grains were obtained under the condition of high strain speed and low temperature, but the grain sizes were uneven at low temperature compression. The stress peaks in the hot compression true stress-true strain curves of continuous casting AZ80 did not shift at different compression temperatures. AZ80 forging products with fine grains are expected to be formed under various conditions by using continuous casting AZ80.
