Fender Design

                                                     FENDER DESIGN

OBJECTIVE:

                     The objective of this project is to design the BIW(Body in white) of front fender using the fender

skin data and master section as the into data by using NX CAD.

FENDER DESIGN:

                    Fender is the american english term for the part of an automobile, motorcycle or other vehicle body

that frames a wheel well. Its primary propose is to prevent sand, rocks, mud, liquids, and other road spray from

being thrown into the air by the rotating tire. Fender are typically rigid and can be damaged by contact with the

road surface.

        Fender is classificed front fender and rear fender. we are studied and design at Front Fender

   Sticly materials, such as mud, may adhere to the smooth outer tire surface, while smooth loose objects, such

as stones, can be become temporarily embedded in the tread grooves as the tire rolls over the ground.

These materials can be ejected from the surface of the tire at high velocity as the tire imparts kinetic energy to

the attached objects. For a vehicle moving forward, the top of the trie is rotating upward and forward, and can

throw objects into the air at other vehicle or pedestrians in front of the vehicle. Fender is a front outer side

member of a car, which covers the wheel side. 

Front Fender as classified in to two type 

                                    * Full bumper type 

                                    * Half bumper type

Full Bumper Type :

                              

This type of bumper is not commonly used because this design is more scrap producing one during manufacturing.

The blank of steel or aluminum usedto produce this type has more wastages. This type is not economically

good to manufacture.

Half Bumper type :

                                 

This types of fenders most commonly used. The con's of full  bumper type is satisfied in this design, and the blank 

area of wastage while producing the part is drastically reduced by scrap management.

MOUNTED AREAS

 Fender was mounted as following areas,

                               1. A-Pillar

                               2. Bumper

                               3. Sill

                               4. Baffle(Splash)

                               5. Drip

CHALLANGE:

         For the Sill, Bumper, Baffle(Splash), and A-Pillar mount create your own design according to

the Engineering standard that you learned.

Follow the given Master section to create the Drip Area

                  

DART:

                            

which is used to strengthen the Fender mounting areas.

CONCLUSION :

         Finally design of fender is done with the help of NX-CAD software  by following the given master section.
