Modern manufacturers produce bumpers that provide an additional level of safety for both the car and pedestrians. The materials from which the production of these parts is made give them increased strength.
Today, automobile plants that additionally manufacture spare parts and components use various modern computer technologies in the production process. Special programs allow you to create and improve many spare parts, including bumpers, which are involved in a virtual crash test before starting the production process. The design takes into account the possibility of collision with pedestrians, so both the rear and front bumper are designed in such a way as to reduce the level of injury to people in an emergency traffic situation.
On the screen of the computer monitor, a drawing of the mold is being made, which is necessary for molding the bumper. Currently, several casting technologies are used, with the help of which the frontbumper (same as rear). The most common and cost-effective method is casting using gas (nitrogen). This technique provides for a uniform distribution of nitrogen over the melt, which makes it possible to obtain a more even and durable surface of the product. The main function assigned to the bumper is to provide additional protection of the car body from mechanical damage. In the European Union, standards governing the quality of bumpers are applied. The United States of America and Canada have more stringent standards that require additional tests where the rear and front bumper are in high-speed contact with an obstacle.
Modern bumpers, in addition to protective functions, should have a fairly beautiful appearance and fully fit into the design of the car. This is possible due to the use of various synthetic materials in the production process. There are cases when chippers themselves require protection. Very often one can observe a picture in which additional devices are installed on the bumpers that protect them during a collision with an obstacle. The front bumper protection implies quite serious material costs, therefore, automatic parking systems are installed on modern vehicle models. They are aimed at teaching the driver to make contactless parking of the car. At the moment, some Lada cars have a front bumper (Priora), smoothlyflowing into the bodywork. In some cases, it is included in the composition, in which it is one with a false radiator grille. Automotive designers have developed a module that could soon completely replace the front bumper. It is aimed at absorbing shock, while containing lighting equipment, various parts of the cooling system and climate control elements. Such modules can replace dozens of parts. They are supplied by the manufacturer fully assembled. Their installation is quite simple and does not take much time.
