The design philosophy at Peiner has always revolved around delivering grabs which handle the biggest volume of material versus grab dead weight. The standard handling ratio for Peiner buckets and grabs is approximately 60/40, meaning material dead weight of 60 percent versus grab dead weight of 40 percent. This means transporting greater quantities of supplies quicker. The wear and tear on the structure of the crane and its related components is less. By combining innovative design and high quality materials with manufacturing, the desirable weight ratio is obtained.
