Flex coat has been selling them for a long time and like most of their products they are proven to be excellent and reliable.

In my business the amount of rod repair I had to do was extensive and I often needed to dry/rotate 10 rods at a time. I bought the "drum" type unit from Clemens and modified it a bit so that it would hang from the ceiling (took up no working space that way) and also remounted the motor through a pulley/belt set-up to get the desired speed. I wrote an article on my modifications which appeared in a previous issue of the Rodcrafters Journal. It might still be available.

Do a search on the internet for rod dryers/rotators as well. There are at least two specialty companies that make units such as these for rod builders. You have quite a few options here.
