ABSTRACT:
A method and arrangement for achieving a thorough degassing of developed diazo copy material to eliminate the ammonia vapors permeating the developed diazo copy material as a result of the development process. The developed copy is moved from a development chamber containing the developing vapors into a degassing chamber, where the developed copy material is passed over a heated surface in intimate contact therewith to drive out the ammonia from the copy material. The ammonia vapors are carried away by a suction pump or fan to an external ammonia absorbing canister. In a first version, the heated contact surface is provided by a heated tube about which the developed print is drawn after passing off a developer-drive cylinder. In a second version, the developer-drive cylinder moves the developed copy material past a longitudinal seal engaging the drive cylinder, with the region on one side of the seal comprising a heated development chamber, while the region on the other side of the seal is subjected to a suction to evacuate the ammonia vapors. A heated, trough-shaped steel metal guide is positioned to receive and guide the developed copy material out of the machine to augment the degassing effect provided by contact with the heated developer-drive cylinder in the region subjected to suction.
