ABSTRACT:
A compact, simple, fully automatic table-top plate processor for developing offset plates which are inserted horizontally in the front and ejected horizontally from the rear using paired transport rollers and brush rollers training the plate at the exit and thus provides a finished press-ready or storable plate in one cycle. Top rollers fit into essentially vertical slots and have keyed bearings to prevent rotation. The roller drive motor is of such a speed as to provide the proper dwell time prior to the plate being brushed on both sides. The processor provides automatic developing of the plate in an essentially horizontal feed-through operation permitting use on the top of an existing table surface and requiring a minimum of space. By combining the gum into the developer solution the need for several stages (develop, rinse, condition, gum, etc.) is eliminated and this one step machine provides a unique compactness of design.
