Within the US marketplace, SMAG/Peiner has been represented by Peiner USA, Inc. Different industries such as Scrap Handling, Steel Mills, Waste to Energy, Bulk Transfer Facilities as well as numerous other material handling facilities are now utilizing our buckets and grabs to accomplish their tasks.
Peiner's design philosophy has always revolved around the idea of making grabs which handle the biggest volume as opposed to grab dead weight. Normally, the bucket and grab lifting ratio's meaning that 60 percent of material is dead weight vs. 40 percent grab dead weight. This translates into transporting more quantities of supplies quicker. There is less wear and tear on the crane structure and its related parts. Through a combination of manufacturing with high quality materials and innovative design, the weight ration that is required is attained.
In order to meet the specific needs of our customer's individual needs, grab sizes range from less than 1 cubic yard to over fifty cubic yards. Moreover, Peiner USA Inc. provides a complete service facility and spare parts facility for the units sold within the United States, as well as the addition of new grabs and buckets.
