Abstract (en)

Cathode stripping system comprises a cathode stripping device (12) and a conveyor system (14), the conveyor system comprising an upstream storage region (24) in which cathodes (16) to be treated are stored parallel to each other with a first spacing d1. A cathode handling unit (30) is associated with the cathode stripping device (12) and comprises: a carriage (32) mobile in the conveying direction and provided with support means (44) for two cathodes with a second spacing d2, the second spacing d2 being greater than the first spacing d1; and driving means for the carriage (32) designed so that the carriage may perform a reciprocating movement with respect to the cathode stripping device (12) in order to move a cathode (16) to be treated over a distance corresponding to the second spacing d2 from the upstream storage region (24) to the stripping device (12) and concurrently moving a treated cathode over a distance corresponding to the second spacing d2 from the stripping device (12) to the downstream storage region (26).
