鈑金加工(gong)的(de)(de)工(gong)藝有很多種，但是每(mei)一(yi)種的(de)(de)使用方(fang)法和適用范圍都不(bu)(bu)一(yi)樣，我們(men)所要做的(de)(de)就是根據(ju)不(bu)(bu)同的(de)(de)環境、不(bu)(bu)同的(de)(de)要求、不(bu)(bu)同的(de)(de)材料等選擇不(bu)(bu)同的(de)(de)加工(gong)工(gong)藝，在實際操作的(de)(de)時(shi)候(hou)要靈活掌握。
傳統意義(yi)上來(lai)說，金(jin)(jin)(jin)屬(shu)板(ban)材的(de)加工(gong)(gong)工(gong)(gong)藝就(jiu)叫(jiao)做鈑(ban)金(jin)(jin)(jin)加工(gong)(gong)，例如(ru)利用板(ban)材制作煙囪、鐵桶、油箱(xiang)油壺、通(tong)風管道(dao)、彎頭大(da)小頭、天圓地(di)方、漏斗形等(deng)。鈑(ban)金(jin)(jin)(jin)加工(gong)(gong)的(de)主(zhu)要(yao)工(gong)(gong)序是(shi)剪切、折彎扣邊、彎曲成(cheng)型(xing)、焊(han)接(jie)(jie)、鉚接(jie)(jie)等(deng)，進行(xing)鈑(ban)金(jin)(jin)(jin)加工(gong)(gong)的(de)目的(de)就(jiu)是(shi)為(wei)了將(jiang)金(jin)(jin)(jin)屬(shu)板(ban)材加工(gong)(gong)成(cheng)各種(zhong)形狀(zhuang)，從而滿足(zu)各個(ge)領(ling)域的(de)需求。鈑(ban)金(jin)(jin)(jin)件(jian)(jian)就(jiu)是(shi)薄板(ban)五(wu)金(jin)(jin)(jin)件(jian)(jian)，也(ye)就(jiu)是(shi)可以通(tong)過沖壓(ya)，彎曲，拉(la)伸等(deng)手段來(lai)加工(gong)(gong)的(de)金(jin)(jin)(jin)屬(shu)零(ling)部件(jian)(jian)，它的(de)定義(yi)就(jiu)是(shi)在加工(gong)(gong)過程中厚度不變的(de)零(ling)件(jian)(jian).。相(xiang)對應的(de)是(shi)鑄造件(jian)(jian)，鍛壓(ya)件(jian)(jian)，機械加工(gong)(gong)零(ling)件(jian)(jian)等(deng)。
冷加(jia)(jia)工(gong)(gong)工(gong)(gong)藝(yi)是鈑金加(jia)(jia)工(gong)(gong)行(xing)業(ye)經(jing)常會(hui)使用的(de)加(jia)(jia)工(gong)(gong)工(gong)(gong)藝(yi)，適(shi)用于一些質(zhi)量(liang)比較粗糙或者質(zhi)量(liang)沒有(you)保障的(de)金屬制品(pin)，幾乎每個(ge)鈑金加(jia)(jia)工(gong)(gong)廠都會(hui)這種(zhong)工(gong)(gong)藝(yi)，但是如何(he)將(jiang)冷加(jia)(jia)工(gong)(gong)工(gong)(gong)藝(yi)使用好，使用靈活是需要(yao)時間和經(jing)驗的(de)積累的(de)。
