Within the United States marketplace, SMAG/Peiner has been represented by Peiner USA, Inc. Different businesses like for example Waste to Energy, Scrap handling, Steel Mills, Bulk Transfer Facilities as well as numerous other material handling facilities are now using our buckets and grabs to get their jobs done.
Peiner's design philosophy has always revolved around the idea of making grabs which handle the largest volume rather than grab dead weight. Normally, the grab and bucket lifting ratio's meaning that 60 percent of material is dead weight versus 40 percent grab dead weight. This means transporting more quantities of supplies faster. There is less wear and tear on the crane structure and its related parts. Through a combination of innovative design and high quality materials with manufacturing, the weight ration which is desired is attained.
In order to meet the particular needs of our clients' individual requirements, grab sizes vary from less than 1 cubic yard to more than 50 cubic yards. What's more, Peiner USA Inc. offers a complete service facility and spare parts facility for the models sold in the USA, along with the addition of brand new buckets and grabs.
