Abstract (en)

Device (1) for processing a foil substrate (2), e.g., in a roll-to-roll process. The device (1) comprises a holder (3) for a roll of the foil substrate (2) and a transporter unit (16) for unwinding the rolled foil substrate (2) and transporting it in a transport direction along a process path (8,9,10). The device (1) comprises at least one redirecting roller (12) parallel to the surface of the passing foil substrate (2) and which is not under right angles with the transport direction. Optionally, the redirecting rollers (20,21,30,31) comprise independently moveable axial segments and a driving means, such as a tracer pin mechanism, moving the segments to compensate for lateral movement by the foil substrate (2).
