In the United States marketplace, SMAG/Peiner has been represented by Peiner USA, Inc. Different industries like for example Scrap Handling, Steel Mills, Waste to Energy, Bulk Transfer Facilities and many other material handling facilities are currently utilizing our buckets and grabs to get their jobs done.
The design philosophy at Peiner has always revolved around delivering grabs which deal with the largest volume of material versus grab dead weight. The typical handling ratio for Peiner buckets and grabs is roughly 60/40, meaning material dead weight of 60 percent vs. grab dead weight of 40 percent. This translates into transporting greater quantities of supplies quicker. The wear and tear on the crane structure and its related parts is less. By combining manufacturing with high quality materials and innovative design, the required weight ratio is obtained.
In order to meet the particular requirements of our customer's individual requirements, grab sizes range from less than 1 cubic yard to more than 50 cubic yards. Moreover, Peiner USA Inc. offers a complete spare parts facility and service facility for the models sold within the United States, as well as the addition of new buckets and grabs.
