Uncap frames and process wax cappings with ease using this automatic uncapper with extruder from Lyson!

 

Lyson Uncapper with Extruder

 

The ultimate continuous use automatic uncapper with an extruder to quickly process wax cappings. 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 extruder feed hopper. After uncapping, each frame is automatically pushed onto the uncapping table awaiting manual scratching (if needed on poorly drawn frames) and extracting. An inclined tray brings drips to the extruder.

Capping Extruder

The cappings extruder fits beneath the uncapper and processes cappings as they are produced. Using force, a slow-rotating screw made of durable high-density plastic, compresses the cappings while allowing the liquid honey to escape through the perforated cylinder. Compressed wax exits the end of the screw and is ready for further processing. Honey drips into removable sieve trays and then into a holding tank for discharge to your tank.

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 but can easily be adjusted during operation if needed.

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

Colorado Bee Vac

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!

Formic Pro | 10 Dose (20 Strips)

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
