Radial vs Tangential Extractor What is the Difference?
Tangential:
- Frames are parallel with the center of the basket. Only the comb facing outward is extracted.
- Frames must be flipped multiple times to extract both sides and to prevent blowouts where the comb breaks due to the weight of the honey.
- Better for thicker honey as it’s easier for honey to move perpendicular, than to move at a slight angle like that of the radial extractor.
Radial:
- Frames face the center at a slight angle so comb on both sides can be extracted.
- Frames don’t need to be flipped.
See Lyson website for additional details.
This extractor can be motorized with the Lyson add-on motor kit.
