Abstract
The method for separating a profiled foil (5) is carried out using a rotating separation foil (1) which forms a planar surface with a circular periphery (11). The separation foil is rotated (1a) about the circle center (10) and in the plane (10a), the foil plane, which is spanned by the surface. The periphery is brought into contact (15) with the profiled foil by the execution of a relative movement (1b). In this, through abrasion, material (6) is removed and a separation gap (51) is produced in the profiled foil. Material is largely removed from the profiled foil only.
