AUTOMATIC DEVELOPING MACHINE FOR PHOTOSENSITIVE MATERIAL

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable rapid processing and to obtain rinsing processing performance or always consistent with stabilization processing performance by adequately supplying a rinsing liquid or stabilizer. SOLUTION: A rinsing processing step or stabilization processing step for the automatic developing machine 1 for photosensitive materials having the rinsing processing step or stabilization processing step in succession to a development processing step and a fixation processing step, and further having the drying step has a liquid supplying means 81 for aerially transporting the photosensitive materials in a hermetically closed space and supplying rinsing water or the stabilizing liquid to the aerially transported photosensitive materials, a process step heating and temperature control means 82 for controlling the temperature of the pseudo-hermetic space to a high temperature by the steam generated by heating the waste liquid of the rinsing liquid or stabilizing liquid which drops from the photosensitive materials and a liquid heating and temperature control means 83 for heating the supplied rinsing liquid or stabilizing liquid.
