Peiner's design philosophy has continually revolved around the idea of producing grabs that deal with the largest volume as opposed to grab dead weight. Usually, the grab and bucket lifting ratio's meaning that 60 percent of material is dead weight versus 40 percent grab dead weight. This means moving more quantities of materials faster. There is less wear and tear on the crane structure and its related parts. Through a combination of manufacturing with high quality materials and innovative design, the desirable weight ratio is attained.
Grab sizes would vary from 1 cubic yard or less to over 50 cubic yards in order to meet the requirements of the customer.
