Described herein is an improved photographic processing apparatus (100) comprising six processing tanks (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) which are surrounded by a frame (7, 8, 9) carrying a carriage (14). The carriage (14) is moved along cross-member (9) which itself can be raised or lowered relative to upright elements (7, 8). Motors (10, 11) are operated by a controller (15) to control movement of the carriage (14) and the cross-member (9) using belts (12, 13) and hence the movement of material (16) through the apparatus.
