Abstract: A conveyorized electroplating device having an anode positioned proximate to a plurality of absorptive applicator assemblies that apply a plating solution to a substrate and a conveyor device that grips the substrate thereby isolating the electrical contact from the plating solution. The conveyorized electroplating device has a fluid bed assembly with a manifold and an anode, a conveyor device adjacent to the fluid bed assembly, and a plurality of absorptive applicator assemblies, wherein the plurality of absorptive applicator assemblies are adjacent and in close proximity to the anode and in fluid communication with the fluid bed assembly. The conveyor device isolates the electrical contacts from the plating solution and is able to handle various sizes and thicknesses of substrates.

Abstract: A development apparatus and method positions the development electrode (30), in a liquid development system, in a close, spaced apart relationship to a moving photosensitive surface (12). The development electrode (30) has plural supply conduits (76) and at least one drain conduit (84) for eliminating toner starvation during the development process. The development apparatus and method further employ a pressurized filter element (50) having a cell size larger than the particle size to be trapped for reducing the occurrence of voids on the output copy. The filter (50) is configured to provide, in its sealed housing, input (80) and output (82) manifolds.
