Better Engineering F3000-ZX 30" Rotary Dryer (No Wash Plumbing) S/N 13012

F3000-ZX Stainless Steel Rotary Parts Washer / Dryer

Model: F3000-ZX | S/N 13012 | 1990s "Over-Built" Industrial Quality

This Better Engineering F3000-ZX is a specialized rotary parts dryer built on a heavy-duty washer chassis. Manufactured in 1996, this unit hails from an era where Better Engineering utilized thicker-gauge stainless steel and simplified mechanical designs, making it exceptionally easy to maintain and virtually indestructible.

Configuration Note: This unit is a "dryer-only" configuration. It features the full stainless steel cabinet and 30" turntable but does not include the turntable drive or internal plumbing. It is the ultimate dedicated drying solution for parts coming off a manual wash or a separate ultrasonic line. The pump for the cleaning fluid is present and installed.

Why This 1996 Unit is a Smart Buy:

• Proven Durability: Modern machines use lighter materials to save cost; this 1996 model is a "tank." The stainless steel cabinet remains in excellent condition due to its industrial-grade alloy.
• Specialized Application: Avoid the complexity of a combined washer/dryer if you only need the drying stage. This unit provides high-volume, 360-degree drying for up to 750 lbs of parts.
• Mechanical Simplicity: Unlike newer units with proprietary PLC touchscreens that can fail and be expensive to replace, this 1990s model uses reliable, discrete electrical components and standard motor starters.
• Large Capacity: The two-tier basket design and 30" turntable allow for massive throughput in a relatively small footprint.
