Fender Design

AIM:

The aim of these project is to design fender and the main design requirements for Drip area, Bumper, A pillar and Sill mounting areas.

Fender :

Fender is a front outer side member of a car which covers the wheel side. Fender purpose is to prevent sand, mud, rocks, liquids and other particles.

Fender is a closure component, closing the engine compartment and other compartments. The major role of the fender is to avoid the chipping inside the engine compartment. During the motion the wheel picks a sand mud and small stone particles and throws it inside the car and these fenders will be helpful in preventing them by hitting inside the engine compartment and car body. These fenders will have a plastic part which lies on wheel arch area. The fender plays a major role to avoid problems for pedestrian also.Fender are typically rigid and can be damaged by contact with the road surface. It is often also called as Mudguard.

Types of fender :

• Full Bumper Type.
• Half Bumper Type.

Full Bumper type :

It is not used now a days because they requires bigger size blank to produce the part and the large scrap is also produced.

Half Bumper Type :

Half bumper types are used in present and future also because the blank size is less and the wastage or scrap is less comparing to full bumper type fenders.
