Wringing is a process in which a deformable body is deformed in a rotating shear . The result is a twist .

When twisting, it is of interest to build up tension in the deformed body in this way or - especially in gymnastics - to avoid such movements and the resulting tension.

When wringing out the volume reduction of the cavities is in the foreground, so that, for example, a wet mop can be pre-dried in this way.
For a long time, wringing was an important step in washing, followed by ironing . After washing and rinsing, the laundry items were first wrung out in order to remove most of the water and to shorten the subsequent drying process. While this activity was previously done manually, it was later made easier by wringing machines, which were also operated by hand. The item of laundry was driven between two rubber rollers with the help of a handle, whereby a lot of water ran down. A lot of muscle strength was required here. The development of electric tumble dryers and washing machines with more and more automatic systems, which began after the Second World War , made these operations and wringing machines unnecessary.
