More information??
Hi Laundroguy77,
Can you give a little more info... like, what size is this machine, how many lbs is it rated for? What is the application it's being used in (laundromat, apartment building, etc)? Also, if you can, what how is the cycle programmed, i.e, how many washes, rinses, extracts.
Thanks and good luck with it!

Those machines
Were made By Troy laundry Machinery aka Troy Laundrite, they had 18 30 and 40 lb machines in that style, And 125 to 600 lb in the style in the pic. and made quality machinery for hotels and hospitals for many many years not only did they make washers dryers and ironers they made one the best sheet folders on the market, the Troy airjet folder was known and loved my many of us older laundry managers. And was one of the most reliable folders ever made,.

My dad worked for Ametek’s Troy Laundry division in Moline, Illinois, and traveled the United States working on those machines. I have inherited his property and in the process of going through his barn that is full of parts and pieces that I have no idea what they go to. I recognize some things like the rollers from folders, the canvas belts, but other pieces and parts not at all. I have been throwing out a lot of this stuff because it has to be so old. I didn’t think the machines were still around.
I would love to be able to find somebody in the business that I could give it all to and they could sort through and see what they recognize and what might be usable
Any suggestions on who to contact?
