This is a horizontal implementation of a simple daylight developer based on the basic theory of operation used by Rondinax (35 non "U" version) along with some modern IoT sensor/automation integration.
This system consists of the following usage modes & components:
1) Manual: Just using the daylight developer tank, which can be used manually (not unlike a Rondinax 35). The user must manually rotate the knob (magnetically coupled to the spindle) and add/pour out chemistry at the correct intervals.
2) Semi-Automated: Using a motorized-drive base (tank can be set on and removed at will) to automate the film spooling, agitation, and temperature control. The user adds/pours out chemistry per protocol/timer.
3) Fully-Automated: Combine 1 & 2 along with an automated developer (shown in the video/previous thread) and its hands-off other than inserting film (and retrieving the leader if is fully withdrawn).
