Within the US marketplace, SMAG/Peiner has been represented by Peiner USA, Inc. Different industries such as Waste to Energy, Scrap handling, Steel Mills, Bulk Transfer Facilities as well as many other material handling facilities are currently using our buckets and grabs to get their tasks done.
Peiner's design philosophy has always revolved around the idea of producing grabs which handle the largest volume as opposed to grab dead weight. Usually, the grab and bucket lifting ratio's meaning that 60 percent of material is dead weight versus 40 percent grab dead weight. This translates into moving greater quantities of materials quicker. There is less wear and tear on the crane structure and its related components. By combining manufacturing with innovative design and high quality materials, the weight ration that is desired is attained.
To be able to suit the particular requirements of our customer's individual needs, grab sizes vary from less than 1 cubic yard to over fifty cubic yards. Furthermore, Peiner USA Inc. offers a complete service facility and spare parts facility for the models sold within the USA, along with the addition of new buckets and grabs.
