It is shown, that the voltage of the capacitor integrator the capacity of the integrator, inductance of a discharge contour and the type of electrode system are the important technological parameters, that alongside with magnitude of a current in an impulse, defining character of electrovortical currents, value of magnetic pressure and speed of mixing a liquid metal conductor during passing a pulse current through it. The most effective among the investigated electrode systems for processing a cylindrical conductor is the system «an edge – an edge», providing intensive mixing the melt, favorable structure and the improved complex of me- chanical properties of alloys after crystallization.
