WCI History![]() HistoryWright Capacitors, Inc., an ISO 9001; 2000 registered firm, was founded in 1977 by Curtiss C. Wright. The establishment of Wright Capacitors is attributed to the prodding by several companies frustrated in finding a source for high voltage and custom ceramic capacitors. In 1982 Casey Crandall joined the company. A buy-sell agreement was penned in 1984. Crandall became president and Wright retired. Since the beginning, WCI has been a small "hand" operation servicing a limited niche market for custom designed ceramic capacitors. Business has continued to expand and service over 100 accounts including most major OEM's, US Government, Military and NASA. You will find WCI parts in the Hubble, Shuttle, Space Station and many satellites including Voyager I. Voyager I is now beyond our Solar system and still transmitting data! With over three and a half decades of service, our strong military, space, commercial and High Temperature 200°C down-hole logging business gives testimony to our long term investment in emerging fields. WCI emphasis and expertise in R&D and small quantity prototyping continues to lead to large volume and long term programs. If it can be done in ceramics, we can do it, The Wright Way!
