传统意义上紫铜浮雕也称纯铜浮雕，是用红铜薄板作为基材经过手工錾制而成，故又称锻铜浮雕。铜饰产品因其特有的典雅华贵及几千年深厚铜文化的积淀而大行其道，锻铜浮雕则更是风行全国，小到几个平方米的主体浮雕，大到数百平方米叙事式的铜雕文化长廊，到处洋溢着铜艺文化的气息，彰显着铜艺文化的辉煌。给人已强烈的精神震撼。无疑锻铜浮雕在成功展现地方历史文化、现代文明及经济发展方面功不可没。
Traditionally, copper relief is also called pure copper relief. It is made of red copper sheet as the base material by hand, so it is also called forged copper relief. Copper decoration products are popular because of their unique elegance and luxury and the accumulation of thousands of years of deep copper culture. Forged copper relief is popular all over the country. The main relief is as small as several square meters, and as large as hundreds of square meters of narrative copper culture corridor. It is filled with the flavor of copper culture everywhere, showing the brilliance of copper culture. Give people a strong spiritual shock. Undoubtedly, forged copper relief has played an important role in successfully displaying local history and culture, modern civilization and economic development.
利用离子法在非金属模具上生产紫铜浮雕壁画则是堆金技术一次革命性的突破，具有里程碑的意义。离子法紫铜浮雕壁画生产的基本程序如下：构思制图－－手版模具雕刻－－硅胶模具翻制－－配制溶液－－调节电源－－粗成品加工－－钝化－－仿古作旧或氧化着彩－封闭－装框。离子法生产紫铜浮雕工艺品虽然已有近十年的时间，但其发展并不是很快，迄今为止全国较有规模的企业仅3－4家，且分布极不合理 ，经济放达的长三角、珠三角、及沿海发达地区几乎是空白，这固然有生产企业封锁技术的因素，也有技术传授单位的宣传误道以及专业水平低下的缘故，当然也有受地方产业结构及产业政策的影响，所有这一系列的因素阻碍了离子法铸铜工艺的健康发展。
The production of copper relief murals on non-metallic moulds by ion method is a revolutionary breakthrough in gold piling technology and has milestone significance. The basic procedures for the production of ionic copper relief frescoes are as follows: conceptual drawing-hand engraving-silica gel mold fabrication-solution preparation-regulating power supply-rough product processing-passivation-wufangbuc.07858.net tongdiaojd.71ix.comtongdiaoc.71ix.com tongdiaoj.71ix.comtongxianglu.71ix.comtongdiaoo.71ix.comantique or oxidation-colouring-sealing-framing. Although the production of copper relief handicraft by ion method has lasted for nearly ten years, its development is not very fast. So far, only 3-4 large-scale enterprises have developed in China, and their distribution is very unreasonable. There are almost no economic development in Yangtze River Delta, Pearl River Delta and coastal developed areas. This is due to the blockade of technology by production enterprises, as well as the misleading propaganda of technology teaching units and so on. Of course, the low professional level is also affected by the local industrial structure and industrial policy. All these factors hinder the healthy development of ion copper casting process.
