Company History
AJ Engineering was incorporated in 1989 by Jim Wellspeak to provide U.S. and international converters an alternative source for quality goods, parts and services at reasonable prices. Since then, we have traveled the world and installed a wide variety of sheeting machinery. The name AJ Engineering is derived from the initials of company founder Jim Wellspeak and his wife Audrey (ladies first, of course). Jim provides the engineering expertise while Audrey takes care of the finances. When the consulting business started expanding into providing machinery for his clients, Jim joined forces with Glenn VanOrman, founder of G&M Machine. The relationship with Glenn was established in the late 1970's when Jim hired Glenn out of high school to work at the former Clark-Aiken Company in Lee, Massachusetts. Since then, the relationship and common work ethic of our companies has grown into a true friendship and business partnership. Although we work closely together, the two companies have remained separate entities, allowing both the ability to focus on their specialties. AJE provides the Designs and G&M Machine performs the Manufacturing. In 1995, Mike Wellspeak joined the AJ Engineering team. Originally, his task was to help in the drafting department and on field installations. Since then, he has developed his skills in every aspect of the business including Machine Design, Electrical Enclosure Manufacturing and Finances. Our future goals will continue to focus on providing custom-built machinery for the converting industry. Our wealth of knowledge, work ethic and personal relationships in the industry should serve us well on the journey.
