A Garlic Peeling Machine is a specialized piece of equipment that uses Compressed Air Technology to peel garlic cloves without damaging the surface.¹ This is critical for commercial use because traditional "wet" peeling or friction peeling often bruises the garlic, leading to a shorter shelf life.

For a processing capacity of 100 kg/hr to 500 kg/hr, a "Dry Type" pneumatic peeler is the industry standard.

1. Technical Specifications (Dry Pneumatic Type)

2. The 3-Step Process for High Capacity

To achieve 500 kg/hr, the garlic must go through three distinct machines:

1. Garlic Bulb Breaker (Splitter): Uses soft silicone rollers to break the whole bulb into individual cloves without crushing them.
2. Elevator/Conveyor: Moves the cloves into the peeler hopper.
3. Peeling Machine: A high-pressure air blast "blows" the skin off the clove instantly. The skin is sucked out by a fan, and the clean garlic falls into a tray.²

3. Key Features to Look For

• Silicone Rollers: Ensure the bulb breaker uses high-grade food-grade silicone to prevent "bruising" (which turns garlic brown after 2 days).
• Automatic Discharge: Modern machines in Ahmedabad feature a timer-based discharge, ensuring the garlic stays in the peeling chamber only as long as necessary.
• Built-in Dust Collector: Garlic skins are very light and can create a mess. Look for a machine with an integrated cyclone or bag to collect the skin.
