Global Automotive Front End Module Market

The Front-End Module (FEM) in vehicles is a system, typically made up of steel or plastic, that provides an appealing and secure user interface to the vehicles. Many a times, it is personalized according to customer requirements. FEM forms a crucial part of the vehicles since this modular system also reinforces the structure (chassis, main rails, shotguns), respecting its robustness (tolerances of the body) in accordance with NVH performance. FEMs pass through durability tests (static and dynamic), crash test performance, aerodynamics test, modal F.E.A analysis, CAE system analysis, etc. to ensure the desired characteristics and performance.
