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 translates into transporting greater quantities of supplies faster. There is less wear and tear on the crane structure and its related components. By combining high quality materials and innovative design with manufacturing, the desirable weight ratio is obtained.
Grab sizes will 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 spare parts facility and service facility for the models purchased within the United States, along with the addition of brand new grabs and buckets.
