This study investigated how initial ingot thickness (400 mm vs. 520 mm) influences the microstructure and mechanical properties of Al–Zn–Mg–Cu alloys rolled to 80 mm. The combination of smaller initial thickness and lower total reduction (the 400-L route) results in lower dislocation density and a higher fraction of metastable η′ precipitates after T77 treatment. In contrast, the 520-L route, which involves a larger initial ingot thickness coupled with greater rolling reduction, yields higher dislocation density and a greater proportion of stable η phase. Texture also differs: the 400 mm ingot develops a strong S texture and high anisotropy, whereas the 520 mm ingot exhibits Brass texture and reduced anisotropy. Specifically, cross-rolling plus longitudinal rolling of the 520 mm ingot enhances recrystallization texture, giving a short-transverse yield strength of 528 MPa—within 6% of the longitudinal direction. This work offers valuable insights for controlling anisotropy in large 7xxx aluminum plates.
