Component Specifications

Definition
A structural component in automotive active grille shutter (AGS) systems designed to securely mount and align multiple shutter blades and their actuation mechanisms. It ensures proper airflow management by maintaining consistent blade spacing and alignment, while withstanding vibration, thermal cycling, and environmental exposure typical in automotive front-end applications.
Working Principle
Provides rigid mounting points for shutter blades and actuators while maintaining dimensional stability under operational loads. The frame transfers mechanical forces from the actuator to multiple blades simultaneously, ensuring synchronized opening/closing movements. Its design minimizes airflow obstruction when shutters are open and supports aerodynamic efficiency.
Materials
Typically aluminum alloy (e.g., 6061-T6) for weight reduction and corrosion resistance, or glass-filled polyamide (PA6-GF30) for cost-effective plastic versions. Surface treatments include powder coating for metals or UV-stabilized finishes for plastics.
Technical Parameters
  • Weight 0.8-1.5 kg
  • Flame Rating UL94 V-0 (plastic versions)
  • Vibration Resistance Up to 15g @ 10-2000 Hz
  • Dimensional Tolerance ±0.5 mm
  • Operating Temperature -40°C to +120°C
Standards
ISO 16750-3, DIN 75220, SAE J1455
