In the US marketplace, SMAG/Peiner has been represented by Peiner USA, Inc. Various businesses like for example Scrap Handling, Steel Mills, Waste to Energy, and numerous other material handling facilities including Bulk Transfer Facilities now depending on our buckets and grabs to get their tasks done.
Peiner's design philosophy has continually revolved around the idea of producing grabs that deal with the biggest volume as opposed to grab dead weight. Normally, the grab and bucket lifting ratio's meaning that 60 percent of material is dead weight vs. 40 percent grab dead weight. This translates into moving greater quantities of supplies faster. There is less wear and tear on the structure of the crane and its related components. By combining manufacturing with innovative design and high quality materials, the desirable weight ratio is attained.
Grab sizes will range from 1 cubic yard or less to over 50 cubic yards in order to suit the needs of the client. Peiner USA Inc. also offers a complete service facility and spare parts facility for the models purchased in the USA, along with the addition of new grabs and buckets.
