The front end module technology is a system developed to make the interface with vehicle body in accordance with costumer requirements. This modular system also has characteristics to reinforce the structure (chassis, main rails, shotguns), respecting its robustness (tolerances of the body) in accordance with NVH performance. The decision of having a FEM design made by steel and plastic was taken due to NVH specification, impact and safety requirements. Other items were either considered such as: fixation on the body of the vehicle, constraints between bumper beam and engine cooling module. Simulation tools including: durability test (static and dynamic) and modal F.E.A analysis, CAE system, crash test performance, aerodynamics required to insure results desired results.
