A stripping apparatus for stripping metal film from a metallized plastic film is provided. In accordance with one aspect of the invention, a rod is utilized for providing an anode or cathode charge, with the rod movable in a direction perpendicular to the direction of movement of the metallized plastic film. As a result, any remnants which may accumulate on the rod from a previous stripping operation do not adversely affect subsequent stripping operations. Further, a pressing roller is provided which is downstream of both of an anode/cathode roller and the cathode/anode rod. In another embodiment, a plurality of anode-cathode pairs are provided which are rotatably mounted. When one of the anode-cathode pairs is performing a stripping operation, another of the anode-cathode pairs can be cleaned by a brush or grinding device, such that a newly cleaned anode-cathode pair can be presented for each stripping operation.
