Automatic Linen Feeders & Spreaders for Ironing Lines
Automate the front end of your ironing line with precision feeding and spreading.
Automatic Linen Spreading · Labor-Saving Clamp Technology
- Air-pressure assist feeding for smooth, wrinkle-free linen input (GSB Series)
- Single-station clamp spreader — one operator replaces two, 50% labor reduction
- Triple-station clamp spreader — three operators load simultaneously, 3× throughput
- Automatic edge detection and precision alignment for every linen piece
- Speed-matched integration with all HOZO Y and YH Series flatwork ironers
- Compatible working widths from 1,200 to 3,300 mm
- Scalable upgrade path: manual → air-pressure → single clamp → triple clamp
From Manual Feeding to Fully Automatic Spreading
GSB Series — Air-Pressure Assist Feeder
The entry-level solution. Two operators spread the linen manually at the feeding station. Air-pressure assists pull the fabric flat and feed it smoothly into the ironer. Reliable, cost-effective, compatible with all HOZO ironer working widths from 1,200 to 3,300 mm.
Single-Station Clamp Spreader
The labor-saving upgrade. One operator hangs the linen onto mechanical clamps — the machine grips, spreads, and feeds automatically. Eliminates the need for a second operator, cutting labor cost by 50% at the feeding station.
Triple-Station Clamp Spreader
The high-throughput solution. Three operators load linen simultaneously onto separate clamp stations. The machine automatically sequences the pieces and feeds them one by one into the ironer at maximum speed. Designed for central laundry plants processing 2,000+ kg/day.
Automatic edge detection and clamp alignment ensure each linen piece enters the flatwork ironer perfectly positioned, eliminating skewed feeding and reducing rework rates.
Start with a GSB air-pressure feeder and upgrade to a single or triple-station clamp spreader as your volume grows. No need to replace your ironer or folder — all feeders connect to the same ironing line.
Front-feeding workstation with adjustable height and smooth surfaces reduces physical strain during extended shifts.
Feeding speed automatically synchronizes with the connected ironer, preventing jams and ensuring continuous operation.

Linen Feeder & Spreader Applications
Hotels & Hospitality
Speed up bed sheet and tablecloth feeding for high-volume hotel laundry. Automatic alignment eliminates manual spreading, reducing operator fatigue and improving throughput consistency.
Central Laundry Plants
Essential for high-volume operations processing linen from multiple clients. Multi-station spreading keeps up with 5–6 roll ironers at maximum speed, preventing input bottlenecks.
Hospitals & Healthcare
Consistent feeding of surgical drapes, patient bedding, and clinical linen into the ironing line. Automated spreading reduces human contact with freshly washed linen, supporting hygiene protocols.
Linen Rental Services
High-speed feeding and spreading for commercial linen services processing thousands of pieces daily. Precision alignment and clamp-type spreading reduce jams and rework.
The linen feeder is the critical first stage of any ironing line. Without proper feeding, even the best ironer cannot deliver consistent results. HOZO offers the widest range of feeding solutions — from the simple GSB air-pressure feeder to the fully automatic triple-station clamp spreader.
