ironer
Laundry smoothing device
An ironer is a person or machine that irons—pressing wrinkles from fabric with heat.
The word most often refers to industrial equipment: a mangle or rotary press used in laundries and hotels to smooth large items like sheets and tablecloths.
As an occupation, ironer has largely given way to broader terms like laundry worker.
