Zusammenfassung:A method and apparatus are provided for peeling a thin film, typically 100 microns or less in thickness, from a liner by use of a rotatable peel rod supported in an air bearing.

Air openings in the arcuate surfaces conduct a flow of air into an air bearing gap between the arcuate surfaces and the peel rod.
