An old engraving of a cloth drying machine in a textile mill or factory. It is from a Victorian mechanical engineering book of the 1880s. The machinery in operation uses heated cylinders and rollers on which cotton or linen is run through. The process dries and irons the material. Similar machines are used to dry paper.
