In automated warehouses and distribution centers, moisture is a concern, but surface profile is critical. Forklifts and autonomous robots require specific Floor Flatness (FF) and Floor Levelness (FL) numbers to operate safely and efficiently.
Defining the Numbers
- FF (Flatness): Measures the bumpiness of the floor over short distances (2 feet). Important for vehicle vibration.
- FL (Levelness): Measures the tilt of the floor over longer distances (10 feet). Critical for high-rack storage stability.
IFTI’s Profiling Capabilities
While moisture is our bread and butter, IFTI’s diagnostic services extend to surface profiling. We can verify if a slab meets the specific FF/FL requirements for your robotic systems or high-gloss polished concrete specifications.
Ensure your slab meets the spec. Contact IFTI for surface profiling and moisture testing.
