In June 2026, Shuliy Machinery completed the delivery of an SL-30 garlic peeling machine to a food processing business in Japan. The machine was configured for 200V 60Hz single-phase power, matching Japan’s western grid standard.
The client had been peeling garlic by hand for years. Labor was expensive, output was limited, and worker turnover was high. After installing the SL-30, the client reached a stable output of 30 kg/h with a peeling rate of 95–98%, and reduced prep time for every shift.
This case shows how a compact small garlic peeling machine can replace manual work in a space-limited kitchen or workshop.
Customer Background: A Garlic Processing Workshop in Western Japan
The customer is a small food processing business located in western Japan. The company supplies peeled garlic to local restaurants, bento makers, and frozen food distributors.
Like many small Japanese food businesses, the workshop has strict hygiene standards and limited floor space. Electricity in this region is 200V 60Hz single-phase, so any imported machine had to match this specification exactly. Standard 220V 50Hz equipment from overseas would not run correctly on the local grid.
What Did the Japanese Workshop Need from a Garlic Peeler?
Before contacting Shuliy, the workshop peeled garlic cloves manually. Workers blanched and hand-peeled each batch. This created several problems:
- Slow output. Three workers could prepare only about 20–25 kg of peeled garlic per day.
- High labor cost. Japan’s minimum wage keeps rising, and seasonal staff are hard to retain.
- Worker discomfort. Peeling garlic for hours causes skin irritation and eye strain.
- Inconsistent quality. Some cloves were damaged or over-peeled, which hurt product appearance.
- Space limits. The workshop could not fit large industrial equipment.
The client needed a compact garlic peeler that could process around 30 kg per hour, run on 200V 60Hz single-phase power, and clean easily between batches.
Shuliy Solution: What Garlic Peeling Solution Did Shuliy Provide?
Our sales engineer recommended the SL-30 garlic peeling machine, a compact dry-peeling unit designed for small and medium workshops.
Key reasons for this choice:
- 30 kg/h capacity matched the client’s daily target of 200–250 kg.
- 200V 60Hz single-phase motor fits the western Japan power supply directly. No transformer or wiring changes were needed.
- Only 200W power consumption, keeping electricity costs very low.
- 500×500×800 mm footprint, small enough to place on a countertop corner.
- Dry pneumatic peeling with no blades, which keeps cloves whole and undamaged.
- SUS304 stainless steel body, meeting the client’s hygiene requirements.
Before shipment, we tested the machine with the client’s garlic samples and confirmed the motor ran correctly at 200V 60Hz. We also provided English and Japanese operation labels for the control panel.

Packaging and Shipping to Japan
The SL-30 was packed in an export-standard wooden crate with foam padding inside. Because the machine weighs only 40 kg, a single worker can move and install it without lifting equipment.
We arranged ocean freight to the client’s designated port in Japan. Shipping documents, including the packing list, commercial invoice, and certificate of origin, were sent to the client in advance to speed up customs clearance. Door-to-door delivery from our factory to the client’s workshop took about 25 days in total.
What Support Does Shuliy Provide?
After the machine arrived, our engineer guided the client’s staff through video call installation. The machine was connected and running within 30 minutes.
Shuliy’s after-sales service for this order includes:
- 1-year warranty on the motor and electrical components
- Lifetime technical support via video call, email, and messaging apps
- Spare parts supply, including air hose fittings and sealing parts
