The Automatic Pickled Garlic Clove Production Line is a specialized industrial solution engineered to automate the traditional pickling process of premium pickled garlic. This production line is uniquely optimized for “Laba Garlic,” a cultural delicacy known for its emerald-green color and crisp texture. By integrating precise temperature control, automated vinegar infusion, and vacuum-accelerated pickling technology, this line ensures that the pickled garlic undergoes a uniform transformation without losing its characteristic crunch or nutritional value. Designed for large-scale food processors, this system transitions the labor-intensive pickling craft into a highly efficient, hygienic, and standardized mechanical operation.
Integrated Pickled Garlic Clove Production Workflow
To ensure the scientific transformation of pickled garlic into its signature green hue, the line follows this rigorous workflow:
Garlic Clove Selection → Washing & Cleaning → Dewatering/Drying → Container Filling → Vinegar Brine Injection → Sealing → Temperature-Controlled Fermentation (Greening) → Pasteurization → Final Packaging
Bubble Washing & Cleaning Machine: Uses high-pressure bubbles and water sprays to thoroughly remove impurities from the garlic cloves while maintaining their delicate surface.
Vibrating & Air-Knife Dewatering Machine: Rapidly removes surface moisture from the garlic cloves to prevent dilution of the pickling vinegar.
Linear Jar/Bottle Filling Machine: Automatically dispenses the cleaned garlic cloves into containers with high precision and speed.
Vacuum Vinegar Filling & Sealing Machine: Injects the specialized pickling liquid and seals the container to create an anaerobic environment for the pickled garlic.
Intelligent Fermentation Chamber: Features a programmed temperature-cycling system that triggers the enzymatic reaction to turn the garlic cloves green.
Continuous Pasteurization Tunnel: Gently sterilizes the sealed jars to extend the shelf life of the pickled garlic without compromising its crispiness.
Automatic Labeling & Shrink Wrapping Machine: Completes the professional presentation of the product for the retail market.
Laba Garlic Clove Production Line Advantages
Full Process Traceability: The PLC-based control system monitors and records temperature and time data for every production batch.
Consistent Quality Control: Automation removes human error, ensuring that every batch meets the same standards for acidity, color, and crispness.
Shortened Fermentation Cycle: Our technology accelerates the greening process of pickled garlic, reducing the lead time from months to just a few days.
Extended Product Shelf Life: The combination of vacuum sealing and pasteurization allows the pickled garlic to be stored for up to 12 months at room temperature.
Jade Garlic Clove Production Line Features
Smart Temperature-Controlled Greening: The system simulates specific temperature fluctuations (low-temperature induction) to ensure 100% greening of the pickled garlic.
High-Precision Vinegar Dosing: Equipped with flow meters that ensure a consistent ratio of garlic to vinegar, which is critical for flavor standardization.
Acid-Proof SUS316L Components: All parts in contact with vinegar are made from high-grade SUS316L stainless steel to prevent corrosion and metallic contamination.
Integrated Pasteurization Technology: Uses a low-temperature sterilization method that kills bacteria while preserving the enzyme-driven color and crunchy texture.
Pickled Garlic Clove Production Line Benefits
High Market Value: Produce premium “Jade Garlic” that commands higher prices in both domestic and international gourmet markets.
Seasonal Independence: You can produce fresh, green pickled garlic all year round, regardless of the outdoor ambient temperature.
Regulatory Compliance: Designed to meet HACCP and GMP standards, making it easier to pass strict food safety audits from global retailers.
Reduced Operational Costs: High levels of automation significantly lower labor costs and minimize product waste caused by improper manual fermentation.
