SMAG/Peiner has been represented by Peiner USA, Inc. for over 12 years in the US market place. Various businesses such as Steel Mills, Waste to Energy, Scrap Handling, Bulk Transfer Facilities as well as numerous other material handling facilities are now using our grabs and buckets to accomplish their tasks.
Peiner's design philosophy has continually revolved around the idea of producing grabs which deal with the biggest volume as opposed to grab dead weight. Typically, the bucket and grab lifting ratio's meaning that 60 percent of material is dead weight versus 40 percent grab dead weight. This means transporting more quantities of materials faster. There is less wear and tear on the structure of the crane and its related parts. Through a combination of high quality materials and innovative design with manufacturing, the required weight ratio is attained.
In order to suit the specific requirements of our customer's individual needs, grab sizes vary from less than 1 cubic yard to over 50 cubic yards. Peiner USA Inc. additionally provides a complete service facility and spare parts facility for the units sold within the USA, as well as the addition of brand new grabs and buckets.
