<p>Electro-plating apparatus (1) has an electro-plating bath (2) containing electrolyte (3), an anode configuration immersed in electrolyte (3) being a planar anode (4) and an arcuate solid anode (5). In use, a continuous web of flexible substrate (6) (onto both side of which material is to be deposited) is passed along a transport system (7) in a direction shown by arrow (A). Transport system (7) comprises a set of rollers (8, 9) of which rollers (8) are generally cylindrical, driving rollers while rollers (9) are cathode connectors and have a number of circumferential projections (10) which ensure electrical contact with unconnected or discreet regions on substrate (6). Another electro-plating apparatus (20) has a cathode connector configuration (21) with four comb electrodes (22) each having a main portion (23) with a plurality of teeth (24) each of which has end (25) inclined in the direction of the movement of the substrate.</p> |
