FLR Crop Drying is a brand
of Flach & Le-Roy Ltd
On Floor Storage
Flach & Le-Roy drive-on ventilated floors provide a flexible, reliable and efficient crop/woodchip drying and storage system, which can easily handle the throughput of modern machinery. Our floors are designed and manufactured to a high specification using top-grade hardwood and softwood boards, supplied in short lengths for ease of maintenance.
Our hardwood top boards are manufactured from selected Keruing timber, which is kiln-dried prior to precision machining to eliminate the potential for shrinkage. This treatment significantly reduces the risk of a ventilation mesh becoming detached in service.
For our optional softwood top boards and in all our bearers we use slow-growing, hard wearing Baltic, Russian or Scandinavian timber, which provides excellent wear characteristics,
Our floors will withstand up to the 10-ton pneumatic tyre axle loads regularly experienced with modern farm machinery. What’s more, the floors are built to a modular design on-site to enable adjustment to fit variations in concrete floor levels.
Flach & Le-Roy flooring allows for even air distribution ideal for difficult-to-dry crops.
Under Floor SealingWith under-floor partitioning and plywood sealing strips there is no ‘wasted’ air; you only blow where it is needed. The total area of the floor and the height at which the crop/woodchip is to be dried and stored dictates the bearer depth. Intermediate bearers stationed between the main bearers give the floor added strength and stability under high traffic loads. |
