SMAG/Peiner has been represented by Peiner USA, Inc. for more than 12 years in the United States market place. Different businesses like for example Scrap Handling, Steel Mills, Waste to Energy, Bulk Transfer Facilities as well as numerous other material handling facilities are now relying on our buckets and grabs to accomplish their jobs.
Peiner's design philosophy has always revolved around the idea of producing grabs which handle the largest volume rather than grab dead weight. Usually, the bucket and grab lifting ratio's meaning that 60 percent of material is dead weight vs. 40 percent grab dead weight. This means transporting more quantities of supplies quicker. There is less wear and tear on the crane structure and its related components. Through a combination of manufacturing with high quality materials and innovative design, the required weight ratio is obtained.
To be able to suit the specific requirements of our customer's individual needs, grab sizes range from less than 1 cubic yard to over fifty cubic yards. In addition, Peiner USA Inc. offers a complete spare parts facility and service facility for the models sold in the USA, as well as the addition of brand new grabs and buckets.
