spin dryers

Rotating moisture removers

Spin dryers are machines that remove water from wet laundry by spinning it at high speed, using centrifugal force to push moisture out through perforated walls.

Unlike tumble dryers, they don't use heat—they extract water mechanically, leaving clothes damp but not dripping.

Most modern washing machines include a spin cycle that serves the same function.
