A baker proofer or cooler wherein a series of rack carriers having vertically spaced shelves for supporting bakery products and the like are moved around a conveyor circuit in a continuous path. The carriers are moved along longitudinally extending upper and lower conveyor circuit runs joined at their ends by elevator and lowerator runs and at least one of the lowerator and elevator runs has a series of vertically spaced support stations spaced to substantially correspond to the vertical spacing of the shelves of the rack carriers, so that the carriers may be indexed vertically a shelf at a time. A vertically operative, carrier indexing member is provided to move the carriers vertically from support station to support station in increments and means is provided at the terminal portion of at least one of the longitudinal runs for positively moving the endmost carrier longitudinally from the longitudinal run to position it on the vertically moving member.
