Abstract
There is described a device for processing a roll of exposed film coiled on a spool which comprises a cylindrical light-tight container wherein the film on the spool is rotated and which is of sufficient diameter and height to accommodate the film loosely coiled on the spool, a light-tight lid to close the container, the device being characterized in that it comprises at least two radially extending raised members attached to the base of the container so shaped that as the wound film is rotated in the container some of the convolutions of the film are at one instance bunched together, while other convolutions are separated and means connectable to the spool for enabling the spool to be rotated when it is in the container.
