The design philosophy at Peiner has always revolved around delivering grabs that deal with the largest volume of material vs. grab dead weight. The standard handling ratio for Peiner buckets and grabs is about 60/40, meaning material dead weight of 60 percent vs. grab dead weight of 40 percent. This means moving greater quantities of materials quicker. There is less wear and tear on the crane structure and its related parts. By combining high quality materials and innovative design with manufacturing, the desirable weight ratio is attained.
