Peiner's design philosophy has continually revolved around the idea of making grabs that deal with the biggest volume rather than grab dead weight. Usually, the grab and bucket lifting ratio's meaning that 60 percent of material is dead weight vs. 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. Through a combination of high quality materials and innovative design with manufacturing, the weight ration that is required is obtained.
