A garlic-separator machine, also known as a garlic clove separator or garlic bulb breaker, is a food-processing device used to separate whole garlic bulbs into individual cloves quickly and efficiently. It works using soft rubber or silicone rollers that gently rub and squeeze the bulbs, while an adjustable gap allows different bulb sizes to be processed without damaging the cloves. Many machines include a built-in blower that removes garlic skins and waste, achieving a high separation rate of around 95–98%. Made from stainless steel and food-grade materials, these machines are hygienic, durable, and suitable for continuous operation. They are widely used in garlic-processing plants, restaurants, and small commercial units to reduce manual labor, improve speed, and prepare garlic for peeling, paste production, or packaging.
