Abstract
An electrode for an electrochemical metal removing process, with the electrode consisting of a metal sheet extending at right angles to a sinking direction of the electrode. To enable the production of end face contours the metal sheet is provided with perforations which extend laterally beyond an edge of the workpiece being processed. A resiliently mounted plate of an insulating material may be provided for covering a rear side of the perforations.
