Frame holder for drums

The universal uncapping stand is a versatile and robust tool designed to facilitate the uncapping process over honey drums, optimizing space and improving efficiency in the beekeeper's daily tasks. It is specifically designed for use with frames from various hive systems such as Layens, Langstroth, and Dadant, offering an adaptable and practical solution for beekeepers of all levels.

Technical features:

• Material: Made from high-strength steel rods, ensuring durability and prolonged use, even under demanding beekeeping conditions.
• Compatibility: Designed for standard 300 kg honey drums or 220-liter drums, allowing for a quick and effective transformation of a drum into an improvised uncapping station. It is also compatible with uncapping tubs, adding versatility to the tool.
• Secure fastening: It firmly attaches to the edge of the drum with four wing screws, providing stability and security during the uncapping process.
• Dual usage: Allows two operators to work simultaneously from both sides, increasing efficiency when extracting honey from the frames.

Functionality in beekeeping:

This universal uncapping stand simplifies the uncapping process by eliminating the need for a dedicated uncapping table. By uncapping directly over the drum, it saves space and time, while the cappings fall directly to the bottom, where a strainer can be placed to drain the honey.

Uncapping is a crucial task in beekeeping, where the beekeeper removes the wax that seals the honey-filled cells. This product facilitates the task by allowing stable support for the frames while using the uncapping knife, reducing fatigue and improving precision.

Key benefits:

• Space optimization: Turns a simple drum into a functional uncapping station, avoiding the need for additional equipment.
• Versatility: Compatible with various types of frames and adaptable to other containers like uncapping tubs.
• Efficiency: Its design allows two people to work simultaneously, making it ideal for larger beekeeping operations or beekeepers looking to reduce the time spent processing frames.
• Ease of use: The wing screw fastening and its lightweight yet sturdy structure make installation and use quick and easy.

Ideal for beekeepers seeking an economical, practical, and efficient solution for uncapping, this stand is an essential tool to improve productivity during honey harvesting.
