 A short history of Sponseller Group

The company was started in 1973 by Harold Sponseller, P.E. a mechanical engineer who previously was employed at Owens-Illinois. Originally, he offered mechanical engineering and illustration services utilizing employees working in the office.  Later on, companies requested personnel to perform design services at their location.  He also offered machine design and build of complete automated equipment through a wholly owned machine shop, Accumatic Machinery.  After thirteen years he expanded into the structural field with structural engineering analysis, structural design, equipment layout services, and steel detailing for General Motors Corporation, McNally Pittsburg, and others.  Since that time, we have expanded to several hundred different clients.
