Are still made by a few industrial/commercial laundry equipment companies. Truth to tell their use began declining once Braun invented first washer/extractor, then others joined in.
Some places kept and still do keep using separate washers and extractors, but modern plants shy away from the latter for a host of issues primary being safety. Electrolux: tools.professional.electrolux.com... Fagor: worldwidelaundry.com/on-premise/... Ellis: www.ellislaundry.com/prod... Otherwise it is same thing as with domestic H-axis washers, increase in final spin speeds meant many in theory didn't need separate extractors. www.automaticwasher.org/c... |

In Brazil there are several companies that make them, way cheaper than famous corporations like Electrolux Suzuki is one of them. (nothing to do with the Suzuki cars) It's a family owned company that, coincidently, the founder is Mr. Suzuki. CLICK HERE TO GO TO thomasortega's LINK |
