How CLM’s Industrial Dryer Machines Deliver Reliable Performance with Advanced Configuration Options

energy-efficient clothes dryer

CLM offers a complete lineup of single-door and two-door pass-through industrial tumble dryers designed for high-performance facilities. The range includes both steam-heated and gas-fired models, with recommended dry weight capacities from 250 lbs. to 1200 lbs. Consolidated Laundry Machinery (CLM) continues to deliver cost-effective, best-in-class industrial dryer machine equipment built for long-term reliability and efficiency.

What Door and Tilt Configurations Are Available?

CLM industrial tumble dryers can be configured with either a 1-door or 2-door pass-through design, depending on the facility layout and workflow requirements.

  • Non-pass-through (1-door, 2-way tilt): Tilts back for loading and forward for unloading.
  • Pass-through (2-door, 1-way tilt): Tilts in one direction for streamlined transfer between clean and soiled areas.
  • 2-door, 2-way tilt: Offers the greatest flexibility, allowing loading and unloading from either side.

All of these door and tilt configurations are included at standard pricing, ensuring facilities receive complete configuration flexibility without added cost. CLM is one of the only manufacturers in the industry that does not charge extra for custom configurations—a reflection of its commitment to value and customer efficiency.

How Does Control Panel Placement Reduce Installation Costs?

CLM dryers feature the option to position the control panel on either the right-hand (RH) or left-hand (LH) side of the machine. This flexibility enables more efficient utility placement and can reduce installation costs, especially when two dryers are installed side by side.

The exhaust duct placement can also be configured at the front or rear of the dryer. Both control side and exhaust location adjustments are available at standard pricing, providing facilities with customization flexibility at no additional cost.

By alternating RH and LH configurations, facilities can optimize space, simplify duct routing, and facilitate installation in tighter layouts—all without incurring extra charges.

What Models Are Available in CLM’s Product Line?

CLM’s product line includes both gas-heated (GP) and steam-heated (SP) models, each designed for consistent performance under industrial workloads:

  • 105 cu. Ft.: 250 lbs. dry weight (Gas: 105 GP / Steam: 105 SP)
  • 140 cu. Ft.:  350 lbs. dry weight (Gas: 140 GP / Steam: 140 SP)
  • 165 cu. Ft.:  450 lbs. dry weight (Gas: 165 GP / Steam: 165 SP)
  • 194 cu. Ft.: 600 lbs. dry weight (Gas: 194 GP / Steam: 194 SP)
  • 264 cu. Ft.:  800 lbs. dry weight (Gas: 264 GP / Steam: 264 SP)
  • 321 cu. Ft.: 1200 lbs. dry weight (Gas only: 321 GP)

Each model is built to meet rigorous operational demands while maintaining durability, safety, and consistent output.

Which Features Come Standard on CLM Dryers?

All models feature CLM’s MicroCommand III color touchscreen PLC—a user-friendly control interface that simplifies operation and monitoring. Standard safety components include emergency stop buttons, door position sensors, and precision tilt controls.

In addition, IRI (Industrial Rated Ignition) gas train systems are now standard across CLM’s gas-fired dryer line, further improving efficiency and reliability. Previously an optional upgrade, this feature now reflects CLM’s commitment to continuous product advancement.

Which Optional Features Enhance Performance?

CLM offers additional features that enhance performance and adaptability, including:

  • Automatic plastic release systems for mixed-material loads.
  • Variable-speed basket drives for smooth startup and control.
  • Ceramic-coated removable basket panels to enhance durability.
  • Sound reduction packages for quieter operation.
  • Stainless steel lint traps with air accumulator systems for easier maintenance.
  • Door size options: 48” doors on smaller models and 60” doors on larger dryers.

These enhancements help facilities optimize throughput while maintaining consistent quality and energy efficiency.

Why CLM Stands Out

Consolidated Laundry Machinery has been manufacturing industrial laundry equipment for over 50 years. Each dryer is engineered with heavy-duty materials, UL508a-compliant control systems, and energy-efficient technology. CLM’s long-standing reputation as an industrial “workhorse” manufacturer is built on reliability, performance, and innovation.

CLM is also unique among industrial dryer manufacturers for providing configuration flexibility—such as control side selection, exhaust placement, and pass-through or tilt options—all at standard pricing. This approach allows facilities to receive fully customized systems without unexpected add-on costs.

Delivery and Support Advantage

CLM maintains an industry-leading delivery schedule of 60–90 days, significantly faster than the market average. When facilities need to buy industrial dryers, CLM’s delivery schedule helps minimize operational downtime. This quick turnaround minimizes downtime and helps facilities resume full operation faster.

Every dryer is backed by a responsive service team, ensuring long-term dependability and smooth performance across all operational environments.

Ready to Upgrade with CLM?

CLM’s industrial dryer machines combine advanced configuration flexibility, standard customization options, and proven reliability. With left or right control placement, front or rear exhaust configurations, and pass-through or non-pass-through tilts—all included in standard pricing—facilities can configure systems that perfectly fit their space and workflow.
