When off-the-shelf can’t do the job: machines built for your exact process.
J+H Automation Solutions designs, fabricates, and tests custom machinery and equipment in Hackett, Arkansas. Full mechanical and controls design, a fully-staffed fabrication and machine shop, real-world testing in our own facility, and in-house installation teams — purpose-built solutions for manufacturers across North America.
Three capabilities. Machines no catalog sells.
Equipment Design & Manufacturing
Our team of mechanical and controls design engineers develops and designs many different types of machinery and equipment — covering all aspects of mechanical and controls design and build.
We test equipment and systems in our own facility in the most “real world” environment possible, and we're capable of complete custom machine builds under our own roof.
Custom Fabrication & Machinery
We maintain multiple modes of mechanical and controls build resources in-house: a fully-staffed fabrication and machine shop and our own control panel fabrication shop.
Keeping fabrication and machining in-house is a deliberate differentiator — it lets us manufacture custom equipment on small or large scales with the most up-to-date manufacturing technologies, without outsourcing delays.
Factory Installation & Setup
We provide complete mechanical, electrical, and controls on-site setup and support for custom machinery and equipment.
Installation teams are in-house, guided by our own project managers, and carry a wide variety of skillsets — because the implementation stage is critical to the success of any project.

Custom manufacturing capability sets J+H apart from the industry
Many systems depend on custom equipment to perform reliably — which is why J+H keeps a full-time staff at our fabrication and machining facility. Our ability to manufacture custom equipment on small or large scales frequently sets our offerings apart from the rest of the industry.
In addition to a large spectrum of standard components, we design and construct even the most custom components and systems — and our 2025 facility expansion added 75% more production space for building and testing them.
Designed, built, and proven by the same team
Design + Build, One Team
Mechanical and controls engineers work alongside our own fabricators and machinists — no translation loss between drawing and shop.
Real-World Testing
Machines are tested in our facility under conditions that match your floor, not just powered on and shipped.
In-House Installation
Our own crews handle mechanical, electrical, and controls setup and support at your factory.
Common questions about custom machine builds
What kinds of custom machinery can J+H build?
Our mechanical and controls design engineers develop many different types of machinery and equipment — purpose-built for processes where off-the-shelf equipment can't do the job, on small or large scales.
Is fabrication done in-house or outsourced?
In-house. J+H maintains a fully-staffed fabrication and machine shop plus our own control panel fabrication shop, using current manufacturing technologies.
Do you test custom machines before delivery?
Yes. Equipment and systems are tested in our own facility in the most real-world environment possible before they ship.
Can custom equipment be integrated with standard components?
Yes. We routinely combine custom-built machinery with standard conveyors, robotics, and controls to form one complete system.
Who installs the machine at our factory?
J+H's own in-house installation teams, guided by our project managers, provide complete mechanical, electrical, and controls on-site setup and support.
