Within the US marketplace, SMAG/Peiner has been represented by Peiner USA, Inc. Various businesses like for instance Steel Mills, Waste to Energy, Scrap Handling, Bulk Transfer Facilities and numerous other material handling facilities are presently using our buckets and grabs to get their jobs done.
Peiner's design philosophy has always revolved around the idea of making grabs which deal with the biggest volume rather than grab dead weight. Typically, the grab and bucket lifting ratio's meaning that 60 percent of material is dead weight vs. 40 percent grab dead weight. This means transporting greater quantities of materials quicker. There is less wear and tear on the structure of the crane and its related parts. By combining innovative design and high quality materials with manufacturing, the required weight ratio is obtained.
Grab sizes would vary from 1 cubic yard or less to over 50 cubic yards in order to suit the requirements of the customer. Furthermore, Peiner USA Inc. provides a complete service facility and spare parts facility for the units sold within the USA, along with the addition of new grabs and buckets.
