Industrial PCs can be customised in low volumes
Hoffmann + Krippner has formed a new UK subsidiary and appointed Ian Ritson as managing director. Based in Cambridge, Hoffmann + Krippner (UK) Ltd will focus on the company's industrial panel PC (IPC) business, including developing cost-effective custom industrial PC products for low- to medium-volume requirements. The UK organisation joins a global network of offices that includes the USA, Germany, Austria, Switzerland and the Netherlands.
Prior to taking up his role as Hoffmann + Krippner's UK managing director, Ian Ritson was the business development manager for display and user interface specialist Anders Electronics. Ritson, who combines a strong engineering and technology background with a proven track record in delivering industrial PC-based systems, has previously held senior roles with companies such as Accelent Systems and Densitron Technologies.
