A deposition apparatus and a method for depositing deposition material on a web is described. The deposition apparatus includes a first sputter device support defining a first axis for a first rotatable sputter device, a second sputter device support defining a second axis for a second rotatable sputter device, and a coating window. The first sputter device support and the second sputter device support are adapted for supporting the first rotatable sputter device and the second rotatable sputter device to provide at least a component of the deposition material to be deposited on the web over a coating drum. Further, the distance between the first axis and the second axis is smaller than 200 mm.
