Company History
Morsch Machine was founded in 1959 by William (Bill) Morsch in Los Angeles, California.
The Company operated as a sole proprietorship for thirteen years until Bill Morsch joined in a formal partnership with Joe Salontai in 1972. On January 1, 1975, following the retirement of Mr. Morsch, the Salontai family became the sole owners of the company, with spouse Claudia Salontai as chief financial officer and majority shareholder.
In 1977, Morsch Machine was incorporated as Applied Resources, Inc., a California Corporation, doing business as Morsch Machine. The company began to develop a strategy within the contract machining industry to specialize in a more narrow range of expertise. The move into precision CNC machining was made first through NC machining, followed by progressive evolution to current state-of-art equipment.
Morsch Machine has expanded from a "two-man" operation to its current size. Additionally, Morsch Machine continues to hone expertise in the Electronics and Avionics industries, while placing significant emphasis on electronic mechanical-support components, enclosures, chassis, and modules.
In 1995, Morsch Machine relocated to Chandler, Arizona, with the intention of expanding operations as well as continuing to provide the finest in precision machining capabilities to its Customers.
Following the passing of Claudia in 2013, the company has remained family owned, with Joe as President and CEO working alongside sons Daniel and Joseph and daughter Johanna.
