On March 31, 2026, the fully automated Industrial Garlic Peeling Machine line constructed by Zhengzhou Lerford Intelligent Equipment Co., Ltd. was loaded into containers at the Zhengzhou Comprehensive Bonded Zone and shipped to the state of Guanajuato, Mexico, following the completion of comprehensive system integration testing, a 72-hour continuous stability test, and compliance certification for food machinery safety by Mexico's SENASICA. This marks Lerford's first export to the Latin American market using a "modular turnkey line + localized process package" model, signaling a new phase in China's food pre-processing equipment industry as it transitions from supplying individual machines to providing system integration services.
Machine Introduction
✅ This production line is not a simple stacking of equipment, but rather a closed-loop intelligent process system deeply customized for Mexico's primary crop, purple-skinned garlic (high stickiness, fragile cloves, moisture content 14–16%). The four core pieces of equipment work in precise coordination and share data:
Intelligent Garlic Clove Separator
→ Employs flexible pneumatic clove separation + multi-stage vibration screening technology, avoiding clove breakage caused by traditional roller extrusion;
→ Built-in AI vision prediction module automatically identifies single/double/multi-clove combinations, dynamically adjusting air pressure and feeding rhythm;
→ Clove integrity rate ≥95.7%, single clove yield 22% higher than traditional models, with no mechanical scratches or thermal damage.
High-Efficiency Industrial Garlic Peeling Machine
→ All 304 stainless steel structure, peeling chamber adopts micro-negative pressure + variable frequency rubber roller design, achieving a four-step closed loop of "light touch-loosening-adsorption-separation";
→ Peeling purity reaches 99.4%, garlic flesh damage rate <0.6% (SGS on-site sampling test), exceeding the Mexican NOM-243-SSA1 requirements for ready-to-eat garlic raw materials;
→ Equipped with an online peel recycling system, over 98% of garlic peels are collected, compressed, and packaged, eliminating workshop dust and cross-contamination.
Stainless Steel Chain Elevator
→ Fully enclosed dustproof structure, adjustable tilt angle (22°–35°) to adapt to different height differences in different work sections;
→ Nano-hydrophobic coating on the chain plate surface prevents wet garlic cloves from sticking and accumulating, ensuring smooth and slip-free conveying.
→ Synchronized with upstream and downstream equipment via PLC hard-wiring, cycle time error < ±0.3 seconds, ensuring zero-accumulation operation throughout the line.
Boosting and Stabilizing Air Compressor Unit (Dedicated to Production Line)
→ Provides a constant pressure clean air source (0.65±0.02MPa) for the pneumatic actuators of the garlic clove splitting machine, the vacuum generation system of the peeling machine, and pneumatic valves;
→ Built-in refrigerated dryer + three-stage filtration (accuracy up to 0.01μm), dew point ≤ -20℃, fully meeting the ISO 8573-1 Class 2:2:2 standard for food-grade compressed air;
→ Noise control ≤ 62dB(A), complying with the Mexican Federal Environmental Protection Agency (SEMARNAT) industrial noise limits.
Key factors to consider when selecting a product:
Raw material characteristics (petal diameter distribution, moisture content, skin adhesion) → Determine whether custom petal separation pretreatment is required;
Subsequent process requirements (whether skin dander collection is required, whether it needs to be integrated with AI sorting or cleaning stations);
Localization compatibility (voltage/frequency, language interface, spare parts compatibility, service response capability).
The journey of a garlic clove begins in the field and ends with exquisite craftsmanship. When the Industrial Garlic Peeling Machine arrives at the Mexican factory, it is more than just a production line; it represents Leford's commitment to food processors worldwide: data-driven control, not guesswork; preservation, not just peeling; and quality assurance for mass production, not just machinery.
