A process chamber 27 is provided with several successive cathode arrangements 7, 8 which have targets to be sputtered, wherein diaphragms 39, 40 are held between the respective targets 3, 4 and the path of the workpieces 1, 2. In addition to their center openings 66, 67 for the passage of the flow of coating material, further window-like apertures 68, 69 in the area of the material flow, respectively, which are disposed offset to one another and transversely to the conveying direction F of the substrates and thus produce test strips 70, 71 on the workpieces or special test substrates which are passed by the cathode arrangements 7, 8. The test strips each correspond to one single layer of a layer package 72, produced on the substrate, whereby thickness of each layer may be measured by acquiring data on the transmission, reflection, or resistance properties, or by mechanically measuring each layer.
