Some cellular aluminium materials have been extensively developed and investigated in recent years. The potential for applying aluminium foams in lightweight construction is mainly based on the stiffness and impact absorption. Because of these characteristics, this work is based mainly on the uniaxial compression resistance of aluminium foam. The aluminium foam was formed with three different compaction presses to verify the influence on density and, subsequently, crushing resistance.
