鈑金加(jia)工(gong)(gong)(gong)是(shi)鈑金技(ji)(ji)術(shu)職員需要把握的樞紐技(ji)(ji)術(shu)，也(ye)是(shi)鈑金制品成形的重要工(gong)(gong)(gong)序。鈑金加(jia)工(gong)(gong)(gong)是(shi)包(bao)括傳統(tong)的切割下料(liao)、沖(chong)裁加(jia)工(gong)(gong)(gong)、彎壓(ya)成形等方(fang)法及(ji)工(gong)(gong)(gong)藝參(can)數(shu)，又包(bao)括各種冷沖(chong)壓(ya)模具結構(gou)及(ji)工(gong)(gong)(gong)藝參(can)數(shu)、各種設備工(gong)(gong)(gong)作原理(li)及(ji)操縱方(fang)法，還包(bao)括新(xin)沖(chong)壓(ya)技(ji)(ji)術(shu)及(ji)新(xin)工(gong)(gong)(gong)藝。零(ling)件金屬板材加(jia)工(gong)(gong)(gong)就(jiu)叫(jiao)鈑金加(jia)工(gong)(gong)(gong)。

金屬板材加工就叫鈑金加工。具體譬如利用板材制作煙囪、鐵桶、油箱油壺、通風管道、彎頭大小頭、天圓地方、漏斗形等，鈑金加工生產廠家主要工序有剪切、折彎扣邊、彎曲成型、焊接、鉚接等，需要一定幾何知識。鈑金件就是薄板五金件，也就是可以通過沖壓，彎曲，拉伸等手段來加工的零件，一個大體的定義就是在加工過程中厚度不變的零件。相對應的是鑄造件，鍛壓件，機械加工零件等。
