A flow processing system for processing disc-shaped articles such as discs to be used to produce video or audio disc masters, whereby a plurality of processing units for performing respectively different processing operations are combined into a single system in which each disc is moved only horizontally and in a continuously rotating condition, both during processing and while being moved between the processing units. In addition, the supporting structure of the processing units is implemented such as to produce no disturbances in a horizontally directed dust-excluding flow of air, to ensure maximum prevention of adherence of dust particles to the disc surfaces.
