Meet and listen to experts on innovative front-end modules

Auf dieser englisch-sprachigen Konferenz befassen sich Experten mit den neuesten Technologien und Bauweisen der Vorderwagen-Karosserie. Gewichteinsparung sowie Fußgängerschutz sind dabei die wesentlichen Aspekte. Wie sieht die „richtige“ Werkstoff-Lösung aus und welche neuen Integrationsmöglichkeiten bezüglich des Vorderwagens gibt es?

Find out about weight reduction potential of selected front-end components

During the past decade, the modularization of vehicle front-end systems has reduced the number of components while integrating requirements for safety, styling and engine cooling. OEM s and system integrators have reduced front-end complexity, reduced weight, improved styling and simplified vehicle assembly.

Learn about the most innovative concepts of automotive front-end and face a new use of materials

Our conference is focussing on the technical innovations regarding the automotive front-end modules of passenger vehicles. The main focus lies on the opportunities of integration and modularisation.

We will also focus on the question, which kind of pedestrian protection systems are ready for future automotive markets and where the politics will lead to.
