鈑金加(jia)工(gong)的(de)(de)(de)工(gong)藝(yi)(yi)有(you)很多種，但是每(mei)一種的(de)(de)(de)使用(yong)(yong)方(fang)法和適用(yong)(yong)范圍都(dou)不一樣，我(wo)們所(suo)要做的(de)(de)(de)就是根據(ju)不同的(de)(de)(de)環境、不同的(de)(de)(de)要求、不同的(de)(de)(de)材料(liao)等選擇(ze)不同的(de)(de)(de)加(jia)工(gong)工(gong)藝(yi)(yi)，在實際操(cao)作的(de)(de)(de)時候要靈(ling)活掌握。
傳統意義上來(lai)說，金(jin)(jin)(jin)(jin)屬(shu)板(ban)材(cai)的(de)(de)加(jia)(jia)工(gong)(gong)工(gong)(gong)藝就(jiu)叫做鈑金(jin)(jin)(jin)(jin)加(jia)(jia)工(gong)(gong)，例如(ru)利用板(ban)材(cai)制作煙囪、鐵(tie)桶、油(you)箱油(you)壺、通(tong)風管道(dao)、彎頭大小頭、天圓地方、漏斗形(xing)等(deng)(deng)。鈑金(jin)(jin)(jin)(jin)加(jia)(jia)工(gong)(gong)的(de)(de)主要工(gong)(gong)序是(shi)(shi)剪切、折彎扣邊(bian)、彎曲(qu)成(cheng)型、焊接(jie)、鉚接(jie)等(deng)(deng)，進行鈑金(jin)(jin)(jin)(jin)加(jia)(jia)工(gong)(gong)的(de)(de)目的(de)(de)就(jiu)是(shi)(shi)為了(le)將金(jin)(jin)(jin)(jin)屬(shu)板(ban)材(cai)加(jia)(jia)工(gong)(gong)成(cheng)各種(zhong)形(xing)狀(zhuang)，從而滿足各個(ge)領(ling)域(yu)的(de)(de)需求。鈑金(jin)(jin)(jin)(jin)件(jian)就(jiu)是(shi)(shi)薄板(ban)五金(jin)(jin)(jin)(jin)件(jian)，也(ye)就(jiu)是(shi)(shi)可以(yi)通(tong)過沖壓，彎曲(qu)，拉伸等(deng)(deng)手段(duan)來(lai)加(jia)(jia)工(gong)(gong)的(de)(de)金(jin)(jin)(jin)(jin)屬(shu)零(ling)部件(jian)，它的(de)(de)定義就(jiu)是(shi)(shi)在(zai)加(jia)(jia)工(gong)(gong)過程中厚(hou)度不變的(de)(de)零(ling)件(jian).。相對應的(de)(de)是(shi)(shi)鑄造件(jian)，鍛(duan)壓件(jian)，機械加(jia)(jia)工(gong)(gong)零(ling)件(jian)等(deng)(deng)。
冷加(jia)(jia)工(gong)(gong)工(gong)(gong)藝是(shi)鈑(ban)金(jin)加(jia)(jia)工(gong)(gong)行業(ye)經常(chang)會使用(yong)的加(jia)(jia)工(gong)(gong)工(gong)(gong)藝，適用(yong)于(yu)一些質(zhi)量比較粗(cu)糙或者質(zhi)量沒有保障的金(jin)屬制(zhi)品，幾(ji)乎(hu)每(mei)個(ge)鈑(ban)金(jin)加(jia)(jia)工(gong)(gong)廠都會這種工(gong)(gong)藝，但是(shi)如何將冷加(jia)(jia)工(gong)(gong)工(gong)(gong)藝使用(yong)好(hao)，使用(yong)靈活是(shi)需要時(shi)間和經驗(yan)的積累(lei)的。
