Abstract
A box coating apparatus for vacuum coating of substrates comprises a vacuum chamber which contains an evaporation source for evaporating coating material and a substrate holder disposed vis-à-vis to the evaporation source so that coating material evaporated by the evaporation source can impinge on substrates held by the substrate holder. An electric heating device is centrally arranged in the vacuum chamber, which is constructed to heat up the vacuum chamber during vacuum check and cleaning routines. So as to be removable from the vacuum chamber prior to the deposition processes, the heating device is provided with a stand having a plurality of leg portions mounted to a base plate, which are sized and constructed at the base plate so that the heating device can be placed over and above the evaporation source.
