Peiner's design philosophy has always revolved around the idea of making grabs that deal with the biggest volume as opposed to grab dead weight. Normally, the bucket and grab lifting ratio's meaning that 60 percent of material is dead weight versus 40 percent grab dead weight. This means transporting more quantities of supplies faster. The wear and tear on the structure of the crane and its related components is less. Through a combination of innovative design and high quality materials with manufacturing, the required weight ratio is attained.
