honey extractor

Apiary harvest device

A honey extractor is a centrifugal device used by beekeepers to remove honey from honeycomb without destroying the wax.

Frames of uncapped comb are placed in a drum and spun; the honey is flung against the walls and drains to the bottom for collection.

The intact comb can then be returned to the hive for the bees to refill.
