灰鐵鑄件加工的方式主要是以砂型鑄造和金屬型鑄造為主的，每一種灰鐵鑄件加工的方式都有自己獨特的特點。
灰鐵鑄件加工方式一砂型鑄造，是當今鑄造業中使用普遍的鑄造工藝，適用于各種材質，鐵合金，非鐵合金鑄造等灰鐵鑄件加工都能用砂型鑄造。可以生產從幾十克到幾十噸，及更大的鑄造件。砂型鑄造的不足之處是：只能生產結構相對簡單的鑄件。砂型鑄造大的優勢是：生產成本低。但在表面光潔度、鑄件金相，內部密度相對較低。在造型方面，可手工造型，亦可機器造型。手工造型適用于單件、小批量和難以使用造型機的形狀復雜的大型鑄件。機器造型可大幅度提高表面精度和尺寸精度，但，投資較大。
灰鐵(tie)鑄(zhu)(zhu)(zhu)件(jian)加(jia)工(gong)(gong)(gong)方(fang)式二(er)金(jin)(jin)(jin)(jin)屬(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)型(xing)(xing)(xing)鑄(zhu)(zhu)(zhu)造(zao)(zao)(zao)，金(jin)(jin)(jin)(jin)屬(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)型(xing)(xing)(xing)鑄(zhu)(zhu)(zhu)造(zao)(zao)(zao)又稱(cheng)硬(ying)模鑄(zhu)(zhu)(zhu)造(zao)(zao)(zao)，灰鐵(tie)鑄(zhu)(zhu)(zhu)件(jian)加(jia)工(gong)(gong)(gong)是(shi)將液體金(jin)(jin)(jin)(jin)屬(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)澆入(ru)金(jin)(jin)(jin)(jin)屬(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)鑄(zhu)(zhu)(zhu)型(xing)(xing)(xing)，以(yi)獲得(de)鑄(zhu)(zhu)(zhu)件(jian)的一種(zhong)鑄(zhu)(zhu)(zhu)造(zao)(zao)(zao)方(fang)法。灰鐵(tie)鑄(zhu)(zhu)(zhu)件(jian)加(jia)工(gong)(gong)(gong)是(shi)用金(jin)(jin)(jin)(jin)屬(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)制成，可以(yi)反復使用多次(ci)（幾(ji)百次(ci)到(dao)幾(ji)千次(ci)）。 灰鐵(tie)鑄(zhu)(zhu)(zhu)件(jian)加(jia)工(gong)(gong)(gong)工(gong)(gong)(gong)藝金(jin)(jin)(jin)(jin)屬(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)型(xing)(xing)(xing)和砂型(xing)(xing)(xing)，在性(xing)能上有(you)顯著的區別，如砂型(xing)(xing)(xing)有(you)透(tou)氣(qi)性(xing)，而(er)金(jin)(jin)(jin)(jin)屬(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)型(xing)(xing)(xing)則(ze)沒有(you)；砂型(xing)(xing)(xing)的導熱性(xing)差，金(jin)(jin)(jin)(jin)屬(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)型(xing)(xing)(xing)的導熱性(xing)很好，砂型(xing)(xing)(xing)有(you)退讓性(xing)，而(er)金(jin)(jin)(jin)(jin)屬(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)型(xing)(xing)(xing)沒有(you)等(deng)。鑒于此，使用金(jin)(jin)(jin)(jin)屬(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)型(xing)(xing)(xing)鑄(zhu)(zhu)(zhu)造(zao)(zao)(zao)工(gong)(gong)(gong)藝，鑄(zhu)(zhu)(zhu)造(zao)(zao)(zao)技(ji)術(shu)員需要明辨金(jin)(jin)(jin)(jin)屬(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)型(xing)(xing)(xing)與砂型(xing)(xing)(xing)的區別。然后，加(jia)強學習，精藝求精。
