    How to fix film that is too light with Air Techniques Medical Equipment?

      To address film that is too light when using Air Techniques Medical Equipment, consider the following: * The developer may be exhausted. In this case, change the chemistry after processing 300-350 films or every 2 weeks, whichever comes first. * The developer might be contaminated. If so, dispose of the chemistry and clean the equipment with Formula 2000 Plus. Then, replace the chemistry and water. * Ensure you are using the specially formulated Peri-Pro chemistry to maintain film and archival quality. * Check the expiration date on the film box to ensure the film is not outdated. If these steps don't resolve the issue, it could be related to the chemistry temperature or the X-ray machine settings, requiring assistance from authorized dealers.

    Why does the film from Air Techniques Medical Equipment have a diagonal line?
    • V
      Victoria SmithAug 31, 2025
      If the film processed by your Air Techniques Medical Equipment has a diagonal or curved line through it, it may be due to: * Low chemistry level. Make sure the chemistry is at the Fill Line. If it is not, top off the tank to the Fill Line with water. * Chemistry deposits and crystallization clogging the grooves in the transport, preventing the films from fully dropping into the chemistry bath. Clean the grooves with a soft toothbrush.
