Garlic clove processing and sorting line
Highly efficient segmentation, precise color sorting, and cleanliness grading.
Garlic Clove Peeling, Color Sorting, Grading, and Packaging Solutions
The GELGOOG garlic clove peeling and color sorting line is a high-end solution integrating feeding, clove separation, peeling, color sorting, washing, drying, grading, and packaging. The production line uses physical peeling technology to ensure the garlic cloves remain intact, and its core configuration includes a high-precision CCD color sorter to accurately remove moldy, browned, and defective cloves. Subsequent processes include bubble washing, efficient drying, and gentle roller grading, ultimately producing high-quality garlic cloves with high cleanliness, consistent color, and uniform specifications, greatly enhancing product added value and market competitiveness.

Experience firsthand how GELGOOG equipment automatically transforms whole garlic cloves into premium garlic cloves through this video. The video clearly demonstrates the entire process: efficient clove separation, gentle peeling, high-speed color sorting, deep cleaning, thorough drying, and precise roller grading, showcasing our technological depth and reliability in garlic clove processing.
Automatic Feeding and Clove Separation
Whole garlic cloves are automatically fed into the clove separator via an elevator. The equipment uses a unique flexible kneading and vibration technology to separate the garlic bulbs into individual cloves, while avoiding mechanical damage to the cloves.
- This achieves continuous automatic feeding and clove separation of whole garlic, significantly reducing labor costs and intensity.
- The gentle separation mechanism maximizes the integrity of the garlic cloves, minimizing breakage.
- It is adaptable to different varieties and sizes of garlic bulbs, exhibiting high stability.
Peeling and Separation
After being separated into cloves, the garlic cloves enter the peeling machine. Through friction between the cloves and against the flexible inner wall, the garlic skin is effectively removed. A wind system then completely separates the lightweight skin from the cloves.
- High peeling rate, meeting the needs of large-scale industrial production.
- The dry process generates no wastewater, making it more environmentally friendly and providing a dry surface for subsequent color sorting.
- Flexible friction avoids scratching the garlic clove surface, ensuring quality.
High-Precision CCD Color Sorting
Peeled garlic cloves pass through a high-speed CCD color sorter. A camera captures the color information of each clove, and an intelligent system identifies and instructs the spray valves to instantly remove moldy, browned, spotted, and other discolored particles and impurities.
- Ultra-high resolution cameras and intelligent algorithms ensure that even minute color differences and imperfections are effectively removed.
- The finished garlic cloves are uniformly white in color, free of discolored particles, meeting high-end market standards.
- Extremely fast processing speed ensures a smooth production line without bottlenecks.
Bubble Washing
Color-sorted garlic cloves enter a bubble washing machine, where dense bubbles generated in the water tumble and rub against the surface, removing residual fine dust and adhering substances for deep cleaning and secondary purification.
- The bubbles effectively remove all residual dirt from the wrinkled surface of the garlic cloves.
- The water bath buffer method prevents damage to the garlic cloves from bumps and knocks, maintaining their shape.
- This ensures the garlic cloves meet the hygiene requirements for ready-to-eat consumption or further processing.
Air Drying & Dehydration
After washing, the garlic cloves undergo a high-efficiency air drying section. A gentle, even airflow thoroughly removes surface moisture, achieving a dry state suitable for long-term storage and subsequent packaging.
- This prevents sprouting or mold growth during storage due to residual moisture.
- Low-temperature, high-volume drying does not affect the internal quality and freshness of the garlic cloves.
- The dry surface ensures a smooth and precise roller grading process.
Precise Grading
Dried garlic cloves enter a roller grading machine, moving forward on rotating rollers. Through progressively increasing gaps, they are precisely graded according to their diameter.
- This achieves mechanized, high-precision grading of garlic clove diameter, resulting in highly uniform specifications.
- The machine has a simple structure, is easy to maintain, and is suitable for high-intensity continuous operation.
- Standardized garlic cloves facilitate pricing and sales, meeting the needs of different customers.
Packaging
Graded garlic cloves of each grade are fed to an automated packaging line, where a high-precision weighing system completes quantitative filling, and the system automatically handles subsequent processes such as sealing and coding.
- This ensures that the weight of each sales unit meets standards, maintaining commercial reputation.
- Fully automated packaging is far faster than manual labor, greatly improving shipping efficiency.
- It reduces the risk of contamination and complies with food safety production standards.
