Plasgears,
Thank you for the suggestions. Our foam is closed cell, unlike Duocell which is a different kind of product. We wouldn't be able to cast 3D complex foamed parts in an open shell configuration.
Einzats,

Hello all,
I work in a company (Cymat Corp.) that develops manufacturing technologies for aluminum foam. The material can be cast in 2D sheets on a horizontal cast line or in 3D shapes using a modified Low Pressure Casting machine.
Aluminum foam has several interesting properties such as:
