William R. Hettrick of Hamilton, MT developed this method of extracting in the mid-1960's. Cook & Beals, Inc. purchased the rights to manufacture and distribute this style extractor on December 18, 1972. Since then, we have continually endeavored to improve and automate this system.
The Auto-Load Extractor drum holds 128 combs of any depth (exact number will vary if end bar is over 1 3/8" in width).
This machine is equipped with a feeding conveyor and an empty frame rack. The conveyor is designed so that the frames from an uncapping head are conveyed to the extractor. The conveyor holds the same number of combs as the extractor so the uncapping machine never needs to be stopped while loading and unloading the extractor, thus any delay in uncapping time is eliminated.
