Photographic Processing Equipment
John R. Turner · Journal of the SMPTE · 1959
Conventional methods of photographic processing and the functional elements of processing machines such as drives, recirculation systems and agitation devices are reviewed, particularly as related to motion-picture film. Note is taken of techniques, evolved in related fields, that represent a wide departure from these practices both in simplicity and in speed. Also discussed are some photographic processing methods which have had only limited commercial application but which offer comparable possibilities of increased speed and simplicity.
