Flow Hive automatic honey extraction system

An Australian beekeeper, Cedar Stuart Anderson and his son invented the automated honey extraction system called "Flow Hive". This system is essentially a redesigned honeycomb and has bile ducts attached.

"Flow Hive" really revolutionized the work of this long history. Now beekeepers can save almost all their labor in honey harvesting. Usually, people must wear protective clothing, or stun the bees with smoke, take out the honeycomb and eventually extract the honey. These operations not only take a long time but also cause bees to be confused or dead. However, the new method is completely opposite.

The honeycomb hole is built outside.

Real hexagonal honeycomb holes are made and placed in the nest. After you've finished collecting natural honey, the bees will fill the honeycomb with these honeycomb holes. Honey flows from the holes through the duct and enters the jar containing honey outside.

Honey flows into jars.

After 10 years of work and dozens of prototypes, the father and son have called for investment in their systems on the famous Indiegogo website on February 23. Amazingly, "Flow Hive" received over $ 2.4 million in investment in 48 hours, while the initial target was $ 70,000. An unexpected but well-deserved success.
