SMAG/Peiner has been represented by Peiner USA, Inc. for over twelve years in the United States market place. Different industries like for instance Steel Mills, Waste to Energy, Scrap Handling, and numerous other material handling facilities including Bulk Transfer Facilities presently utilizing our buckets and grabs to do their tasks.
The design philosophy at Peiner has continually revolved around delivering grabs that deal with the biggest volume of material versus grab dead weight. The regular handling ratio for Peiner grabs and buckets is about 60/40, meaning material dead weight of 60 percent versus grab dead weight of 40 percent. This means moving greater quantities of materials quicker. There is less wear and tear on the crane structure and its related parts. By combining innovative design and high quality materials with manufacturing, the weight ration that is desired is attained.
In order to meet the specific requirements of our customer's individual requirements, grab sizes range from less than 1 cubic yard to over fifty cubic yards. What's more, Peiner USA Inc. offers a complete service facility and spare parts facility for the models purchased within the United States, along with the addition of brand new buckets and grabs.
