The Auto Freeze Dried Garlic Production Line is a premium industrial solution designed to produce world-class freeze dried garlic that retains its original biological structure and nutritional profile. Unlike traditional thermal dehydration, this line utilizes advanced vacuum sublimation technology to remove moisture at sub-zero temperatures. This precise process ensures that the freeze dried garlic maintains its pungent aroma, natural ivory color, and, most importantly, an exceptional rehydration quality. When soaked, the garlic restores to its fresh-like state almost instantly. Ideal for high-end food ingredients, pharmaceuticals, and gourmet spice markets, this automated system provides the perfect balance of technological innovation and massive production efficiency.
Freeze Dried Garlic Processing Workflow
To guarantee the superior texture and porosity of freeze dried garlic, the integrated line operates through the following scientific stages:
Raw Garlic Bulbs → Splitting & Peeling → Washing & Sanitizing → Slicing/Dicing → IQF Quick-Freezing → Vacuum Freeze Drying (Sublimation) → Chamber Discharge → Picking → Precision Packaging
-
Pneumatic Garlic Peeling Unit: Gently removes skins using high-pressure air to ensure the cloves remain bruise-free for perfect freeze dried garlic aesthetics.
-
Precision Slicing & Dicing Machine: Features high-speed Italian-style blades to cut garlic into uniform 2-4mm slices or granules without crushing the cells.
-
IQF (Individual Quick Freezing) Tunnel: Rapidly freezes garlic to $-40$°C, forming tiny ice crystals that protect the cellular integrity of the garlic.
-
Vacuum Freeze Dryer (Lyophilizer): The core system where ice sublimes directly into vapor under vacuum, creating a porous structure in the freeze dried garlic.
-
Automated Weight-Checking & Packaging Line: Ensures the ultra-lightweight freeze dried garlic is measured accurately and sealed in moisture-proof barrier bags.
Freeze Dried Garlic Production Line Advantages
Perfect Morphological Stability: The garlic retains its original size and shape without shrinking or browning during the drying process.
Rapid Rehydration Capability: The porous “sponge-like” structure allows the garlic to absorb water and return to its fresh state in seconds.
Ultra-Long Shelf Life: Due to extremely low residual moisture (less than 3%), the finished product can be stored for years without preservatives.
Maximum Nutrient Retention: Preserves nearly 100% of Allicin and heat-sensitive vitamins, making your freeze dried garlic a true “functional food.”
FD Garlic Production Line Features
Programmable PLC Interface: A smart control center that manages the complex drying curves required for different garlic varieties and shapes.
Intelligent IQF Pre-freezing: Utilizes ultra-low temperature quick-freezing technology to prevent large ice crystals from damaging the garlic’s fiber.
Food-Grade SUS304 Construction: The entire line, from slicer to drying trays, is built with 304/316L stainless steel for maximum hygiene and durability.
Advanced Vacuum Sublimation Control: Features a high-performance vacuum system and cold trap that maintains a stable sublimation front for uniform drying.
FD Garlic Processing Line Benefits
Access to Premium Markets: Command significantly higher prices by supplying freeze dried garlic to high-end B2B clients in Europe, Japan, and the USA.
Reduced Logistics Costs: The extremely light weight of the finished product dramatically lowers shipping and warehousing expenses compared to fresh garlic.
Superior Brand Reputation: Deliver a consistent, gourmet-grade ingredient that enhances the flavor and quality of your clients’ final food products.
High ROI Efficiency: The automated workflow reduces manual labor and minimizes product waste, ensuring a fast return on your capital investment.
Conclusion
In summary, the Auto Freeze Dried Garlic Production Line represents the pinnacle of garlic processing technology. By mastering the delicate balance of quick-freezing and vacuum sublimation, this system produces freeze dried garlic that is unrivaled in flavor, nutrition, and rehydration quality. Investing in this technology is an investment in the future of high-value, clean-label food production.
