In the spirit of the modern age, we put out a plea for a name suggestion for our non gender specific new recruit!
We’d like to thank everyone who took the time to respond and you certainly made us chuckle – there were some fabulous ideas!
Some of the sci fi film classics were top of the list for many of you, with your favourite robots making an appearance as name suggestions…Johnny from Short Circuit, Robbie the Robot from the 1956 original Forbidden Planet etc.
Our little chap, or as someone put forward, our little Adeptoid, (very cute!) is a Universal Robot e-series, so another proposal was URE (pronounced Urie) – very clever!
However, the winning name has been chosen! So imagine the drum roll whilst we announce the name for our very own R2-D2….
We would like to introduce you to a highly valued member of the team, and please note, unlike the original version he works without coffee(!)
Please welcome to Plunkett Associates…… TIM2.0.
Congratulations to the winner – you know who you are!
"There's a reason why I encourage my team and others to connect with Plunkett Associates...,Tim Plunkett. I've enjoyed the conversations and advice with you Tim. Your enthusiasm has no bounds.

"Always a pleasure to deal with. Hope the growth continues, Tim."Stephen Cooper Director Plastiserve Limited
Plunkett Associates worked on the design and production of titanium frames for an artificial heart valve where precision and consistency was paramount. Communications were efficient and productive with concepts readily incorporated into the final design, and suggestions for improvements all highly appropriate. The quality of the end product was ideal and I have no doubt that I will use the advice and expertise of Plunkett Associates again.David Wheatley, Wheatley Research Ltd

“Doing business with you has been an absolute pleasure. You have made my goals a reality. You have been patient, helpful and above all, responsive. Best service that I have experienced in ages. I consider Plunkett Associates to be an integral part of my business plan moving forward.”
Thanks for the present that arrived this morning, as promised. Parts look first class, as always.
Plunketts developed a solution that met our precision requirements at a cost significantly lower than alternative manufacturing approaches we had investigated
Interestingly, people who look at it in its own right with little knowledge of what it does, just like it! It’s tactile and it looks good…
To create such a consistent quality finish in chrome was an amazing achievement and the prototypes really gave our stand the wow factor.
I can’t recommend Tim and his team highly enough. We ended up with a design which can be produced and assembled quickly, efficiently and reliably, in volumes that make sense
Kirintec were thrilled with Plunketts. They made a complex process simple and we were just amazed at the lead times achieved. Plus, every single deadline was met without any drama.
Plunkett Associates truly offer a complete turnkey solution with Speed, Effectiveness and Precision.
Plunkett Associates have a fantastic supply chain, work with all sorts of production processes and will always do their utmost to solve a problem.
We always know exactly what we’re getting and we know we won’t be let down on quality, price or lead times.
"With their simple to understand language, willingness to go the extra mile and approachability, Plunkett Associates were a great partner for our company. We couldn’t be happier with the results of our project. (A working prototype that they got right first time, by the way). Thank you!"
“We use Plunkett Associates because we want someone we can trust, that knows what they’re talking about, has all the contacts, will provide reliable advice and feedback and will get the right result for us.”
“Accuracy, finish and delivery all first class.”
"Tim's experience, expertise and supplier base have been fundamental to us getting this project off the ground."
Plunkett associates always find a solution. Whatever we need to prototype, they have a great grasp on the technologies available, costs and lead-times so we get the right solution tailored to the project needs. Have always delivered and never let us down.
