Applications

Former foreign brands, such as Volkswagen, Ford, etc., have successfully applied plastics for front-end modules for many years. In recent years, self-owned brand car companies gradually began to carry out independent design and application research of new materials.

Changan Automobile, at the 2011 Auto Show, demonstrated the CX30 compact sedan equipped with an all-plastic front end module, which consists of 22 metal parts to form an injection-molded part, which greatly simplifies the front-end structure of the CX30 model and reduces the weight of the part. Up to 40%, and reduce the total weight of the car about 4kg.

Reasons why front-end modules love LFT-PP

1) Functional integration, a comprehensive multiple functions of a part;

2) The number of molds is reduced, the cost of the mold is reduced, and the processing time is reduced;

3) Reduce installation procedures and save labor costs;

4) Reduce the types of materials for easy material recovery;
