KMG/KM Lateral Ducts – Flexible Solutions for Grain Drying and Aeration

Kongskilde’s lateral duct systems are ideal for drying and aerating all types of crops, including small seeds like rapeseed. The KMG 900, KM 1600, and KM 2500 semicircular ducts can be combined to suit any drying or aeration application, offering a highly customizable solution for grain storage and drying facilities.

These lateral ducts ensure optimal air distribution throughout the system, thanks to their varied sizes and tapered design options. For example, longer lateral ducts can be configured with a KM 1600 followed by a KMG 900, ensuring a low airspeed for efficient and economical grain drying.

Key Benefits of KMG/KM Lateral Ducts:

  • Customizable and Modular Design: Easily combine different duct sizes and components to create a tailored duct system that fits your specific drying and aeration needs.
  • Optimal Airflow: The tapered design of the ducts allows for even air distribution and reduced airspeed, maximizing efficiency in commercial grain drying systems.
  • Durable Construction: Manufactured from galvanized sheet metal in a corrugated shape, these ducts are highly durable and offer excellent compression strength, withstanding grain loads of up to 10 meters in height.
  • Low Air Entry Resistance: The KMG 900 features side louvers that minimize air entry resistance, even when the ducts are covered by grain, ensuring consistent airflow throughout the crop.
  • Easy Installation and Removal: The lateral duct system is simple to install, and can be easily removed when the building is needed for other purposes.

Enhance On-Floor Storage with KR 300 Drive-Over Sections

The KR 300 perforated drive-over sections are ideal for on-floor storage systems where a level floor is required. These sections make it easy to tip and reload grain or seed directly from the drying floor, allowing for efficient handling with a front loader. The perforated design ensures excellent airflow while maintaining a flat, accessible surface for vehicles.

Key Features

  • Durable Construction: Made from galvanized sheet metal with reinforced grill-shaped support on the underside, ensuring long-term durability.
  • Complete System: Can be integrated into a full duct system with gates, slides, and in-floor duct casings for a seamless solution.
