Patent ID: 8361290

Claim:
A coating removal installation comprising: a tank for holding a liquid electrolyte and having an interior and an inner surface along the interior of the tank; a workpiece support; a removable holder comprising: a baseplate; a coupling for mounting the workpiece support, the coupling being supported by the baseplate so as to be rotatable about an axis of rotation, the axis of rotation passing through the interior of the tank, the workpiece support further comprising: a shaft connected to the coupling that lies in the axis of rotation and passes through the interior of the tank, and a plurality of shaft discs, each shaft disc having a center, the center of each shaft disc being fastened and axially centered on the shaft; a current supply device having a first pole and a second pole; a drive device operatively connected to the coupling for rotation of the coupling; and an opposite electrode arranged in the interior of the tank at a distance away from the inner surface of the tank, the opposite electrode being connectable to the first pole of the current supply device and having an opposite electrode surface facing the axis of rotation such that all parts of the opposite electrode surface are approximately a same distance away from the axis of rotation, wherein the coupling is connectable to the second pole of the current supply device.
