In the US marketplace, SMAG/Peiner has been represented by Peiner USA, Inc. Different businesses like for instance Scrap Handling, Steel Mills, Waste to Energy, and numerous other material handling facilities including Bulk Transfer Facilities currently relying on our grabs and buckets to get their tasks done.
Peiner's design philosophy has always revolved around the idea of making grabs which deal with the biggest volume instead of grab dead weight. Typically, the bucket and grab lifting ratio's meaning that 60 percent of material is dead weight vs. 40 percent grab dead weight. This means moving more quantities of supplies quicker. There is less wear and tear on the structure of the crane and its related components. Through a combination of high quality materials and innovative design with manufacturing, the desirable weight ratio is obtained.
Grab sizes would range from 1 cubic yard or less to more than 50 cubic yards in order to meet the requirements of the customer. Peiner USA Inc. also provides a complete spare parts facility and service facility for the units purchased in the USA, as well as the addition of new buckets and grabs.
