Uncapping Equipment
Lyson is a renowned manufacturer of beekeeping equipment, including a variety of uncapping machines and equipment. Uncapping is the process of removing the thin beeswax covering, known as “cappings,” from honey frames to expose the honey for extraction.
Lyson’s uncapping machines are designed to facilitate this process, offering both manual and automatic options
Features
Lyson’s uncapping machines are made of high-quality, acid-resistant stainless steel, ensuring durability and longevity.
They come in different performance variants, such as our cappings extruders, which is available in 50 kg/h and 100 kg/h models
These machines are designed to separate honey and press the uncapped honey in a mechanical manner
The Lyson automatic uncapping machines, for instance, feature adjustable blades and frame feeders to accommodate various frame sizes. They use closed circuit hot water systems to maintain blade temperature, eliminating the need for an external heater.
Our extruders are designed to work with our uncapping machines as well as independently as honey and wax separators for heavy honey.
Benefits
Lyson’s uncapping machines offer several benefits. They are designed for ease of use, with features like wheels for easy transport and controllers that are simple to operate
The machines also have compact dimensions, making them suitable for various spaces
The automatic uncapping machines allow beekeepers to work on other tasks while the machine operates, enhancing efficiency
The machines also minimize damage to the frames during uncapping, which is important as the drawn comb can be reused
Lyson’s uncapping machines also ensure a clean and efficient uncapping process. For instance, the Lyson automatic uncapping machines use oscillating heated blades to cleanly cut cappings into a cappings tank or extruder.
Types and Usage
Lyson offers a range of uncapping machines to suit different needs. For small-scale operations or beginners, handheld uncapping knives and combs are available
For larger operations, we have complete custom made to order extraction lines which include an uncapping head unit followed by a frame feeder that assists the loading process into a horizontal extractor.
The machines are used in the honey extraction process. After uncapping, the frames are usually manually scratched (if needed) and then extracted
The machines are designed to be used indoors in a clean, food-safe area
In conclusion, Lyson’s uncapping machines and equipment are a valuable investment for beekeepers, offering a range of features and benefits that enhance the efficiency and quality of honey extraction
