Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to a method of receiving and treating a moving substrate web (110) in a reaction space of an atomic layer deposition (ALD) reactor (100) and apparatuses therefore. It also pertains to a production line that includes such a reactor. The invention comprises receiving a moving substrate web into a reaction space (150) of an atomic layer deposition reactor, providing a track for the substrate web with a repeating pattern (140) in the reaction space and exposing the reaction space to precursor pulses to deposit material on the substrate web by sequential self-saturating surface reactions. The pattern is performed by turning the direction of propagation of the substrate web a plurality of times in the reaction space. One effect of the invention is adjusting an ALD reactor to a required production line substrate web speed.
