Within the United States marketplace, SMAG/Peiner has been represented by Peiner USA, Inc. Different businesses such as Waste to Energy, Scrap handling, Steel Mills, Bulk Transfer Facilities and many other material handling facilities are now relying on our buckets and grabs to get their tasks done.
The design philosophy at Peiner has always revolved around providing grabs that handle the biggest volume of material versus grab dead weight. The standard handling ratio for Peiner grabs and buckets is roughly 60/40, meaning material dead weight of 60 percent versus grab dead weight of 40 percent. This means transporting greater quantities of materials quicker. There is less wear and tear on the crane structure and its related components. By combining high quality materials and innovative design with manufacturing, the weight ration that is required is obtained.
Grab sizes would range from 1 cubic yard or less to more than 50 cubic yards in order to suit the requirements of the customer. Also, Peiner USA Inc. provides a complete spare parts facility and service facility for the units purchased within the United States, as well as the addition of brand new grabs and buckets.
