Zusammenfassung:An apparatus (10) for transportation of a thin film substrate (12) under vacuum conditions is described. The apparatus (10) for transportation includes a rotatable roller (100) with a substrate facing surface (102) including a first substrate facing surface portion (104), wherein the substrate facing surface (102) includes one or more gas outlets (105), wherein the one or more gas outlets are configured for releasing a gas flow and the roller includes a deposition region (106) and at least one non-deposition region (108). The apparatus further includes a gas distribution system (400) for providing the gas flow through the one or more gas outlets (105) into an interspace between the thin film substrate (12) and the first substrate facing surface portion (104), and a sealing belt conveyor system (120) including one or more sealing belts (122) provided at the at least one non-deposition region (108).
