Abstract
The tab plater has holders mounted on trolleys to move planar workpieces through plating heads designed to treat and to plate the lower marginal edges. Each holder includes a vertically oriented work arm and an adjustable bracket which is adapted to clamp the upper edge of each workpiece. Each plating head has a chamber which includes insoluble anode means and nozzle openings communicating with plenum chambers containing electrolyte fluid under pressure to spray the workpieces as they move through the plating head.
