Abstract
The invention provides a method and a device for mass-producing a magnetic recording medium which has excellent wear and corrosion resistance and uniform quality along the longitudinal and transverse directions of an elongated base body, wherein the elongated base body in a vacuum chamber is fed to continuously deposit a ferromagnetic material thereon, while a gas is sprayed in the vicinity of an incident angle control section of a mask for controlling an angle of incidence of a vapor flow from a vapor source to the elongated base body. The angle of incidence is kept constant to prevent deposition of the vapor material on the incident angle control section, and simultaneously, a uniform oxide film is formed on the ferromagnetic layer using a gas containing oxygen.
