ABSTRACT:
A processor for developing film chips is provided which comprises a series of tanks for developer solutions and coil means for transporting film may be suspended wherein the axis of the coil is vertically disposed above each of the series of tanks. The processor further comprises means for rotating the coil about its central axis wherein when the coil is rotated a film carrier suspended from the coil is capable of being transported in the axial direction of the coil. The coil transport means further comprises one or more deviations in its shape capable of vertically displacing a film carrier suspended from the coil from its axial direction of travel when the coil is rotated. The shape of the coil and its deviations are such that film held by the carrier is capable of being successively transported to and immersed in developer solutions contained in one or more of the series of tanks.
