The cooling station (1) for data carrier disks has at least three cooling spindles (2-5), spaced apart and parallel to each other to carry disks simultaneously and be rotated. Each spindle has at least two spirals with different spiral passage widths. The cooling station for data disks has spirals around the cooling spindles, where the spiral passage of the first spiral has a width of 0.6 mm and the second spiral width is 1.2 mm. The cooling spindles are in an asymmetric array. Four or more spindles are used, where each of three spindles are structured to carry substrate disks of a given diameter. A group of three spindles carry disks of one diameter, and a second group of three spindles carry disks of a different and smaller diameter. The outer spindles are from the first group with a spindle of the second group, seen in the peripheral direction. The spindles to carry the larger disks are located at the corners of an upright triangle, with a further spindle over a corner, so that the additional spindle of the first group forms a second group with the cooling spindles for the smaller disks. The first group of spindles carry disks with a diameter of 120 mm and the second group of spindles is for cooling disks with a diameter of 80 mm.
