15 years at Impulse

Craig Wright - Operations Director

Back in 1993, at the time of its incorporation, Impulse was simply a specialist electronics distributor based in Cannock. In 1997, 4 years on, I joined as a Technical Sales Engineer where I quickly found my feet in the industrial computing industry. Since then I have been proud to be part of the success and development of the company, and now as Operations Director continue to help drive Impulse to new levels in the industry.

During the past 15 years, the directors of the company have developed Impulse’s core competences to move from simple distribution into a complete solutions provider and system integrator. As well as the manufacturing and automation, transportation and defence markets, We now service industries as unique and diverse as oil and gas, security and surveillance, medical and point of care markets, each one bringing its own challenges and opportunities.

With the help and dedication of the directors, and the experienced and ever expanding team here at Impulse, we continue to be a leading UK hardware and software partner for our customers in the design, development and deployment of their industrial and embedded projects and requirements.

I am confident we will continue to go from strength to strength through our continued investment in our core competences, including our technical and project management capabilities. We will endeavour to continue to be of great assistance to all of our customers for many years to come, many of whom have been with us since the Company’s inception in 1993.

New and improved flooring in System Integration facility at Impulse

Here at Impulse, we are constantly looking to improve our services and processes in all areas, whether it is in technical, logistics, sales or marketing. As part of this endeavour, we have just fitted our System Integration facility with brand new, state of the art ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) flooring.

Our Microsoft certified engineers work tirelessly on customised embedded systems, and are extremely disciplined in keeping the working environment as clean and static free as possible. Even so, static electricity built up from walking on ordinary carpets throughout the building can affect sensitive computer components, such as the processor (CPU), hard drive, memory and expansion cards. It is sometimes hard for the technicians to keep a completely static electricity free workshop, so the installation of the new ESD flooring does all the hard work for them.

By wiping out the threat of static electricity and the problems it can cause to installations, we are completely eradicating a variable which can potentially cause hardware failure or malfunction.

This is just one aspect of our System Integration facility that makes Impulse one of the leading System Integrators in the UK. For more information please see our System Integration facility page, or call one of our experienced technical sales team on +44(0)1782 337 800.
