Abstract (en)

[origin: US6589400B1] An apparatus for metal coating of bands by electroplating, with a band running through an acidic electrolyte enriched with a metal, the apparatus including at least one insoluble anode extending parallel to the band and divided, in a running direction of the band, in a plurality of separate anode strips insulated from each other, an arrangement for feeding current to each separate anode strip for precipitating the metal from the electrolyte, with the current flowing from a respective anode strip to the band which forms a cathode, whereby the metal is precipitated onto a band surface, and elements for supplying each anode strip with protective current the voltage of which is so selected that formation of cathode regions on anode strips, which are not supplied with the precipitation current, is prevented.
