SMAG/Peiner has been represented by Peiner USA, Inc. for more than 12 years within the US market place. Different industries like for instance Scrap Handling, Steel Mills, Waste to Energy, Bulk Transfer Facilities as well as numerous other material handling facilities are now relying on our grabs and buckets to do their tasks.
The design philosophy at Peiner has always revolved around providing grabs which deal with the largest volume of material vs. grab dead weight. The standard handling ratio for Peiner grabs and buckets is around 60/40, meaning material dead weight of 60 percent vs. grab dead weight of 40 percent. This translates into moving greater quantities of supplies quicker. The wear and tear on the structure of the crane and its related components is less. By combining innovative design and high quality materials with manufacturing, the desirable weight ratio is obtained.
To be able to suit the particular requirements of our customer's individual requirements, grab sizes range from less than 1 cubic yard to more than fifty cubic yards. Additionally, Peiner USA Inc. offers a complete spare parts facility and service facility for the units sold within the United States, as well as the addition of brand new buckets and grabs.
