NO. Very unsafe thing to do. As said here before, the power draw is very specific. Trying to double up that much demand would cause severe overheating in the wires ( if it just didnt pop the cirucuit breaker first) and lead to a house fire. You need to run a second line with another circuit breaker. Sorry.

That may not be a good idea... if they even make them.
Electric dryers draw alot of amps and running both units of the same plug could be a disater.
I'd install a second plug with the right rating for your equipment.

No splitter, but if you had to just run one machine at a time. You would just have to keep changing plugs.

An electric dryer uses it's own 30 amp plug...If both your machines need 240, you'll need to run a new line.

Sorry no "splitters" available or suggested in this application. These circuits are fused accordingly and any attempt to add additional loads will cause an overload. sounds like you will need to run a new circuit.
