Peiner's design philosophy has continually revolved around the idea of making grabs which handle the biggest volume as opposed to grab dead weight. Normally, the grab and bucket lifting ratio's meaning that 60 percent of material is dead weight versus 40 percent grab dead weight. This translates into moving more quantities of supplies quicker. There is less wear and tear on the crane structure and its related parts. By combining manufacturing with high quality materials and innovative design, the weight ration that is desired is obtained.
Grab sizes will vary from 1 cubic yard or less to more than 50 cubic yards in order to suit the needs of the client. Peiner USA Inc. also offers a complete service facility and spare parts facility for the units purchased in the United States, as well as the addition of new buckets and grabs.
