Uncap a moderate to large number of honey frames with ease using this automatic water heat Lyson unit with a frame storage table and tank.

The ultimate continuous use automatic uncapper. With a closed-circuit hot water system, blades maintain temperature so there is no need to refill or connect an external heater. Control the temperature with a thermostat which allows temperatures between 149-203°F (65-95°C). With automatic chain feeding, you can work on freeing frames from supers, and work in conjunction with the machine, allowing optimum efficiency.

Blades can be adjusted to desired cutting depth. Frame feeder can be adjusted to fit various frame sizes.

How it Works:

Frames are loaded into the frame feeder which holds the frames by the top bar. One frame at a time drops into the chain feeder which guides it between two oscillating heated blades. Cappings wax and honey drip into the cappings tank. After uncapping, each frame is automatically pushed onto the uncapping table awaiting manual scratching (if needed on poorly drawn frames) and extracting. A perforated tray in the bottom of the tank catches cappings and helps pre-filter your cappings honey. The tank holds about 30 frames.

Note:

  • Frames must be drawn out to at least the thickness of the top bar. The uncapping knives are set prior to uncapping based on the thickness of the top bar. The knife position can be adjusted between batches of frames if a new setting is required.

    This was a replacement for an accidental oversight. It went well. Received it promptly and it was perfect. Thank you for the great service.

    Thank you for fixing my messed up order. Love the suit, fits good! Bee vac.... Amazing, easy to use so much easier than what I was doing. Have rescued 2 swarms with it that would have been exterminated.Cyndi B

    I use these for yellow jacket nest removal in conjunction with a full 3-layer ventilated bee suit. Sleevelets are a light weight cotton material, so maybe not sting-proof on their own but over the sleeves of my suit, the light material is less hot than my old gauntlets with heavy canvas. The stiff gauntlet has plenty of room to fit over the elastic cuffs of my suit. This also puts the ventilated section further up my forearm so there's bee suit under it. This is important to me because I have been stung through the vents on my old gloves, which sat below the suit cuff. The leather feels sturdy and supple and dexterity was good. I typically wear a medium to a large glove and these seem true to size. A medium fits a little snug, but I believe the leather will break in to be perfect and provide good dexterity.

    Customer video review of Lyson 4 Frame Manual Extractor with Legs

    Customer service was responsive and helpful at Christmas time and we were excited to give Dad this gift. After a number of years processing honey very inefficiently using various methods this honey spinner was a game-changer. I wish we had invested in it earlier!

    Pierco plastic frame is the best! I've been using them since 2012. They are easy to clean and last for many years and best of all the Bees love them. I have tried others, but the bees don't take to them like they do these. I won't buy any other .

    Customer video review of 6 1/4" Medium Plastic Frame Triple Waxed - 72 pack

    Great experience always. I have ordered several boxes of new triple wax frame's just this year. I have many hives and they are all Pierco triple wax frame's Bees build out wax quickly. Btw - just like everyone else, I am busy and these frames save time for me from having to apply wax myself. They are durable, freeze well over the winter, and stand up to chickens (yep) pecking at drone brood. lol I def recommend
