SMAG/Peiner has been represented by Peiner USA, Inc. for more than twelve years in the United States market place. Different industries like for instance Steel Mills, Waste to Energy, Scrap Handling, as well as numerous other material handling facilities including Bulk Transfer Facilities currently using our buckets and grabs to accomplish their jobs.
Peiner's design philosophy has always revolved around the idea of making grabs which deal with the biggest volume rather than grab dead weight. Normally, the bucket and grab lifting ratio's meaning that 60 percent of material is dead weight versus 40 percent grab dead weight. This means moving greater quantities of materials faster. The wear and tear on the structure of the crane and its related parts is less. Through a combination of manufacturing with innovative design and high quality materials, the weight ration that is required is attained.
Grab sizes will range from 1 cubic yard or less to more than 50 cubic yards in order to meet the requirements of the client. Peiner USA Inc. also provides a complete service facility and spare parts facility for the models sold within the USA, along with the addition of new buckets and grabs.
