SMAG/Peiner has been represented by Peiner USA, Inc. for more than 12 years within the United States market place. Various industries such as Waste to Energy, Scrap handling, Steel Mills, and numerous other material handling facilities like Bulk Transfer Facilities currently relying on our grabs and buckets to get their tasks done.
The design philosophy at Peiner has always revolved around providing grabs which deal with the largest volume of material vs. grab dead weight. The regular handling ratio for Peiner buckets and grabs is approximately 60/40, meaning material dead weight of 60 percent versus grab dead weight of 40 percent. This translates into moving greater quantities of supplies faster. The wear and tear on the structure of the crane and its related parts is less. By combining manufacturing with high quality materials and innovative design, the weight ration which is required is attained.
Grab sizes will range from 1 cubic yard or less to over 50 cubic yards in order to meet the needs of the client. Furthermore, Peiner USA Inc. provides a complete spare parts facility and service facility for the models purchased within the United States, as well as the addition of new grabs and buckets.
