Photographic film measuring and/or processing equipment - has inclined entry surface, straight working surface and inclined run=off surface preventing both length and traverse bowing

摘要

The measuring and/or processing or handling stage (29) has an inclined inlet surface (43), a straight measuring and/or handling surface (45) and an inclined run-off surface (44). The touch edges (41, 42) of the surfaces enclose an angle of 165 to 175 deg. At least one measuring and/or processing device (30, 31) is mounted on the straight surface. These devices are positioned in a region 0 to 20 mm. away from one of the end edge s(41, 42). A measurer for registering the perforating can be placed first in the direction of film transport followed by a measurere for ascertaining film density or transparency. This second stage can be a processing device making notches for frame identification (31). ADVANTAGE - Few components ensuring no transverse or length bowing of film in the area of measuring or handling.
