  • METHOD FOR COATING A PARTIAL AREA OF A WORKPIECE AND SCREENING ELEMENT
    Publication number: 20160122856
    Abstract: To allow a simple and thus inexpensive coating of a part surface of a workpiece, it is proposed in accordance with the invention that the screening element (15, 19) is magnetic at least during an application of a magnetizable coating material. The screening element (15, 19) is demagnetized for removing the accumulated coating material. The coating material accumulated on the screening element (15, 19) can thus be removed very easily and fast and thus inexpensively.
