A stripping device for stripping a flexible substrate from a release layer, the stripping device comprising:
- a wire cutter comprising a moving part and a cutting part connected to the moving part in such a manner that the moving part is able to drive the cutting part linearly;
- and
- an attracting wheel comprising a body part adapted to be movably mounted on the flexible substrate so that the body part is able to roll on the flexible substrate and an adsorption part connected to the body part to generate adsorption force
- to securely attach a part of the flexible substrate as the result of movement of the cutting part.
A stripping method for stripping a flexible substrate from a release layer, the method comprising the steps of:
- aligning a cutting part with a stripping start line between a flexible substrate and a release layer, and disposing an attracting wheel on the flexible substrate;
- moving the cutting part along a cutting direction from the stripping start line so as to cut out a part of the flexible substrate from the release layer;
- and
- generating an adsorption force to a part of the flexible substrate through an adsorption part of the attracting wheel, and rolling a body part of the attracting wheel on the flexible substrate to so as to securely attach a part of the flexible substrate as the result of movement of the cutting part.
