Hi Stan and Joel,
 
I have pictures of parallel extractors on my homepage. It's a radial
with horizontal
shaft. I have been using it for two years now, and it really is fast and
efficient.
With chain feeding from uncapper, and auto loading into extractor this
system saves
a lot of handling of frames. 150 boxes a day, one man operating, and you
don't get
tired ;-)
 
One thing about radials; they have to be wide, mine is 1100 mm in
diameter, to work
with deep frames. I have earlier used a Maxant, and it only worked
efficiently with
shallow or medium frames.
