Working Process
Soil shaking
Shake off heavy dirt clumps from harvested garlic roots before feeding.
Stem trimming
Dual-side cutting bars shear stalks down to the 20–50 mm range.
Automated root cutting
Garlic is fed into the main inlet; the internal conveyor and alignment system automatically trims root whiskers.
Post-sorting
Processed garlic is graded according to retail or wholesale size criteria.

FAQ
Does garlic need pre-sorting?
No — the automatic correction mechanism handles mixed sizes between 35 mm and 90 mm directly.
Can it cut raw stems from harvest?
Stalks must be pre-trimmed to 20–50 mm before entering the automatic root-cutting stage.
What affects cutting quality?
Low soil content on the bulbs and the 35–90 mm diameter range are key for clean cuts.
