Radial vs Tangential 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.
