Manual Honey Extractor

What is a manual honey extractor ?

Beekeepers need to turn honeycomb honey coming out of hives into harvested honey due to consumer preference. The caps , which are considered a beeswax caps by beekeepers, located on the surfaces of honeycomb honeys, are opened with the help of some cutting tools. After the opening of these valves, it is placed in the basket located inside the honey extractor for the framed honey harvesting process. With the help of a gear mechanism called a centrifuge on a manual honey extractor, the inner basket is rotated. Manual honey extractor got its name from the need for human power in the operation of the machine. With a quick rotation of the inner basket, the frames are directed towards the outer wall of the machine. Due to the structure of the basket, the frames that are directed towards the inner wall of the boiler are held, but the honey in the liquid state inside is thrown away due to the center leakage force. The harvested honey, which is thrown into the boiler of the manual honey extractor, flows to the bottom of the boiler. The tap of the honey extractor is located in the front part of the boiler. The harvested honey accumulated at the bottom of the cauldron is transferred to any container for storage with the help of this tap. The honey harvesting process will be finished.
