What J&H Equipment does

J&H Equipment, Inc. is a privately held industrial machinery manufacturer founded in 1975 and headquartered in Alpharetta, Georgia, specializing in vibrating wire screening machines and adjacent dry-process equipment for industrial bulk-material handling. The company's core technology centers on static-body vibrating screen machines whose wire cloth — rather than the entire machine body — is vibrated, using a proprietary Optimizer Tensioning System of rubber buffers and a patented Tuned Suspension Tensioning System to optimize vibration amplitude, power consumption, and screen life. The product portfolio extends beyond screens into feeders (CD, CDF, side, center, conveying, trough types), bucket elevators (belt and chain), valves (stream splitters, multiport rotary, material diverters, modulating discharge), crushers (chain mills, lump breakers, single-rotor hammer mills), Spinden mixer/granulator reactors, automatic samplers, and the recently launched JHV vibrator motors developed with Uras Techno.

The business model is hardware sales of capital equipment augmented by recurring spare-parts and wear-item revenue, casting/forging/machining services, and a formal J&H Service Plan that provides twice-yearly technician maintenance and OEM parts. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; the company sells through territory-protected independent sales representatives, a non-exclusive dealer network, and direct engagement on large enterprise projects, with in-house engineers supporting bids and specifications. End markets are organized by vertical — phosphate and frac sand are the primary segments, with minerals/chemicals, recycling, food, and plastics as secondary verticals. Named major customers include Ma'aden (Saudi Arabian Mining Company), supplied via EPC partner Intecsa Ingenieria Industrial for the DAP & NPK Plants in Ras Al Khair, Saudi Arabia. Equipment is in service at more than 100 sites globally across North America, Latin America, the Middle East and Africa, Asia Pacific, and Oceania.

Operationally the company maintains a 3,000 square foot heated/air-conditioned testing laboratory at its Alpharetta headquarters and a standard modular design philosophy that preserves bolt patterns across generations, enabling upgrade conversion kits from MOD I through MOD III and supporting installed bases for over 40 years. Headcount is reported in the 11-50 range, the company has disclosed no external funding, no parent company, and no revenue, and its strategic activity in 2024-2025 is concentrated in product launches (RotoThrow, Heated RotoThrow, Fertilizer Processing System, JHV motors) and partnership-driven component development.

Products and services

• Single Deck Vibrating Screen Machines Static body vibrating wire mesh screening machine designed for size separations of dry material, achieving high screening efficiency with low power consumption and minimal maintenance. Used by industrial processors in phosphate, frac sand, minerals/chemicals, recycling, food, and plastics for primary, product, polishing, and scalping applications.
• Double Deck Vibrating Screen Machines Static body vibrating wire mesh screening machine designed for multiple size separations of dry material in industrial processing lines.
• Triple Deck Vibrating Screen Machines Three-deck vibrating wire mesh screening machine for multiple size separations in industrial dry-material processing applications.
• Riffle Vibrating Screen Machines Screening machine optimal for high tonnage applications with space limitations. Distributes and splits feed material equally to each deck, effectively doubling screening capacity without enlarging equipment footprint.
• RotoThrow Oscillating Screen Machine
