From the Soup Queen:
Technically, it is a WRINGER, as in "to wring your hands" or "wring all the water out." The piece of machinery that was used before electric/gas dryers came to be, was quite simply: a wringer. It had a handle that moved a series of rollers, sometimes only as few as two. The water went into the bucket below and the item came out as squeezed as it could from between the rollers. The water was "wrung" from the cloth by the "wringer."
"Put through the wringer" means you've really been closely examined, worked, tested... it can be physical or mental. It means you've had a really hard day or you/your work has been very carefully "vetted" or scrutinized.
