Abstract
An apparatus for transporting exposed radiation sensitive film strips (102) through process liquids (38) for development includes an essentially vertical, porous serpentine wall (18) formed in oppositely opening loops (32, 34), alternate ones of which partially surround hollow porous partial cylinders (42), thus defining a sinuous path along which a transport web (70) is driven while carrying film strips which are supported treated by process liquids flowing through the porous wall and partial cylinders.
