This listing is for a used stenter and dryer — specifically a rimeless hydro extractor, sometimes referred to as a centrifugal extractor — manufactured by ALVE and dating from 2017. Hydro extractors of this type are used in textile processing to remove excess water from fabric loads by high-speed centrifugal spinning, reducing moisture content before downstream drying or finishing operations. ALVE is a Portuguese manufacturer known for producing laundry and textile finishing machinery, including centrifugal extractors, for industrial and commercial applications.
The machine is an ALVE LUH 1500, built in 2017 and offered here in used condition from a location in Portugal. It features a rimless basket with a diameter of 1,500 mm and a height of 800 mm, giving it a substantial working volume suited to heavy industrial loads. The maximum loading capacity is 400 kg, making it appropriate for high-throughput textile or laundry operations where large batch processing is required.
Speed is inverter controlled, with a maximum of 750 rpm, allowing the operator to adjust the extraction cycle to suit different fabric types and load weights. The drive motor is rated at 24 kW and the machine operates on a 400 V, 50 Hz three-phase supply. An electronic brake system is fitted, enabling controlled and safe deceleration after each extraction cycle. The machine is supplied complete with a loading winch, which facilitates the handling and loading of heavy textile loads into the basket.
