Summary

Black and white photograph of the under-pass section of the J.7 machine in the west wing of Building 2, Emulsion Department, at the Kodak Australasia Pty Ltd factory, Coburg circa 1963. The film or paper web after leaving No.2 drier passes through this under-pass before reaching No.2 floater and No.2 coating station. The under-pass has been constructed as a 'T' shape so that in the future web reversal may be attempted at this point.
