Abstract
In the apparatus of this invention, filtered electrolyte is introduced immediately adjacent to the revolving cathode head of the apparatus and the filtered electrolyte is forced to flow along the surface of the cathode head to the surface of the bath, thereby flushing foreign materials from the cathode head and the part being replicated. A side weir is provided which is positioned normal to the plane of rotation of the revolvable cathode head which assists in drawing the electrolyte contaminated with foreign materials away from the electroforming section so that the contaminated electrolyte can be more effectively filtered and reused.
