Within the United States marketplace, SMAG/Peiner has been represented by Peiner USA, Inc. Different industries like for example Waste to Energy, Scrap handling, Steel Mills, Bulk Transfer Facilities and many other material handling facilities are now utilizing our grabs and buckets to accomplish their jobs.
Peiner's design philosophy has continually revolved around the idea of making grabs that handle the biggest volume instead of grab dead weight. Usually, the bucket and grab lifting ratio's meaning that 60 percent of material is dead weight versus 40 percent grab dead weight. This means moving greater quantities of supplies faster. The wear and tear on the crane structure and its related components is less. Through a combination of manufacturing with high quality materials and innovative design, the weight ration that is desired is attained.
Grab sizes would vary from 1 cubic yard or less to more than 50 cubic yards in order to meet the needs of the customer. Also, Peiner USA Inc. offers a complete spare parts facility and service facility for the models purchased in the USA, as well as the addition of brand new buckets and grabs.
