Different businesses such as Scrap Handling, Steel Mills, Waste to Energy, and many other material handling facilities including Bulk Transfer Facilities now using our buckets and grabs to do their tasks.
The design philosophy at Peiner has always revolved around providing grabs which handle the largest volume of material vs. grab dead weight. The standard handling ratio for Peiner grabs and buckets is about 60/40, meaning material dead weight of 60 percent vs. 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 manufacturing with innovative design and high quality materials, the weight ration which is desired is obtained.
Grab sizes would range from 1 cubic yard or less to more than 50 cubic yards in order to suit the needs of the customer. Also, Peiner USA Inc. provides a complete service facility and spare parts facility for the models purchased within the USA, along with the addition of brand new grabs and buckets.
