鈑金加(jia)工的(de)工藝有很多種，但是每一(yi)種的(de)使(shi)用方法和適用范圍都不一(yi)樣，我們(men)所要做的(de)就是根據不同(tong)的(de)環境、不同(tong)的(de)要求(qiu)、不同(tong)的(de)材料等選(xuan)擇不同(tong)的(de)加(jia)工工藝，在(zai)實際操作的(de)時(shi)候要靈活掌握。
傳(chuan)統(tong)意義上來(lai)說，金(jin)屬(shu)板(ban)(ban)材的(de)加(jia)工(gong)(gong)工(gong)(gong)藝就叫做(zuo)鈑(ban)(ban)金(jin)加(jia)工(gong)(gong)，例如利(li)用板(ban)(ban)材制作煙囪、鐵桶、油箱油壺(hu)、通風管道、彎(wan)(wan)頭大小頭、天(tian)圓地方、漏斗(dou)形(xing)等(deng)。鈑(ban)(ban)金(jin)加(jia)工(gong)(gong)的(de)主要(yao)工(gong)(gong)序是(shi)(shi)剪切、折彎(wan)(wan)扣邊、彎(wan)(wan)曲成(cheng)型、焊接、鉚接等(deng)，進行(xing)鈑(ban)(ban)金(jin)加(jia)工(gong)(gong)的(de)目的(de)就是(shi)(shi)為了將金(jin)屬(shu)板(ban)(ban)材加(jia)工(gong)(gong)成(cheng)各種形(xing)狀(zhuang)，從而滿足各個領域(yu)的(de)需(xu)求。鈑(ban)(ban)金(jin)件(jian)(jian)(jian)就是(shi)(shi)薄板(ban)(ban)五金(jin)件(jian)(jian)(jian)，也就是(shi)(shi)可以通過沖壓，彎(wan)(wan)曲，拉伸等(deng)手段來(lai)加(jia)工(gong)(gong)的(de)金(jin)屬(shu)零(ling)部件(jian)(jian)(jian)，它的(de)定義就是(shi)(shi)在加(jia)工(gong)(gong)過程(cheng)中厚度不變的(de)零(ling)件(jian)(jian)(jian).。相(xiang)對(dui)應(ying)的(de)是(shi)(shi)鑄(zhu)造(zao)件(jian)(jian)(jian)，鍛壓件(jian)(jian)(jian)，機械(xie)加(jia)工(gong)(gong)零(ling)件(jian)(jian)(jian)等(deng)。
冷(leng)加工(gong)工(gong)藝是(shi)鈑金加工(gong)行(xing)業經常會使(shi)用的(de)(de)加工(gong)工(gong)藝，適用于一些(xie)質量(liang)比(bi)較粗糙或者質量(liang)沒(mei)有保(bao)障的(de)(de)金屬制品，幾乎每個鈑金加工(gong)廠都會這種工(gong)藝，但是(shi)如何將冷(leng)加工(gong)工(gong)藝使(shi)用好，使(shi)用靈活是(shi)需要時(shi)間(jian)和(he)經驗的(de)(de)積累的(de)(de)。
