Active Time-Temperature Compensation
Designed with Active Time-Temperature Compensation, AGO continuously monitors your chemical temperature in the tank and compensates development time for any drop-off or increase in chemical temperature.
This ensures you get perfect negatives with every development.
AGO doesn’t heat the chemicals for you. You need to get the temperature right for the beginning of your development,.AGO will take it from there allowing you to have flexibility while developing without the need to meticulously follow the temperatures during developing.
Some think you can’t compensate temperature by adding time when developing color film. We say you can! Unless your chemical temperature falls out of the recommended ranges you will not get color-shift so big you can’t adapt in post or with an enlarger.

AGO Film Processor is a growing system with more chemicals and features being added with each update.
Automatic Agitation
The AGO provides flexible agitation options with both horizontal rotational and vertical stick agitation modes, powered by a compact yet powerful electric motor.
While rotational mode is generally recommended for its chemical efficiency and compatibility with AGO’s time compensation feature, the stick agitation mode is available for chemicals that don’t work well with constant agitation.
Please note that time compensation is disabled for stick agitation, as the temperature sensor typically does not make contact with the liquid when in the vertical position.
A timely alarm alerts you before the process time runs out so you can be prepared for the next step in process.
Save chemicals with rotary processing
Save up to 60% chemicals with rotational agitation and correct tank selection. It doesn’t require the film to be fully submerged in the solution. To make the most of this method, it’s a good idea to use a Paterson tank that fits your needs.
Here’s how much chemical would you be needing with each Paterson tank for rotary processing.
Yes, the system is compatible with all-size Paterson tanks!
