The design philosophy at Peiner has always revolved around delivering grabs that deal with the largest volume of material versus grab dead weight. The standard handling ratio for Peiner grabs and buckets is about 60/40, meaning material dead weight of 60 percent versus grab dead weight of 40 percent. This means transporting more quantities of materials quicker. There is less wear and tear on the structure of the crane and its related parts. By combining innovative design and high quality materials with manufacturing, the weight ration that is desired is obtained.
Grab sizes will range from 1 cubic yard or less to more than 50 cubic yards in order to meet the needs of the customer. In addition, Peiner USA Inc. provides a complete spare parts facility and service facility for the units purchased within the United States, along with the addition of new buckets and grabs.
