For over two decades, PHD has been engineering custom pick-and-place solutions that go beyond “standard.” Since 2005, our electric and pneumatic variable pick head devices have helped manufacturers solve complex spacing, handling, and throughput challenges with precision and reliability.
Whether your application demands flexibility or simplicity, PHD delivers both.
Our electric variable pick heads are fully programmable, allowing manufacturers to adapt instantly to changing product requirements and layouts.
For applications where cost and simplicity are key, our pneumatic pick heads provide a robust, efficient solution. Designed for repeatability and durability, they offer reliable performance with a lower upfront investment.
But what truly sets PHD apart isn’t just electric vs. pneumatic—it’s how we build them.
Every pick head is engineered to your exact specifications. From custom pitch and number of heads to adaptable gripper mounting, we design solutions around your application—not the other way around.
And with our internal rail systems, we deliver enhanced precision, stability, and long-term performance that outperforms typical competitive designs. It’s just one more example of how PHD continues to raise the bar in automation.
From conveyor spacing adjustments to complex packaging operations, our variable pick head technology is built to handle it all—faster, smarter, and more reliably.
If you’re still trying to make off-the-shelf solutions fit your process, it might be time to rethink what’s possible.
