"Ian Cocker Precision Engineering has been our research group's main machined parts supplier for a number of years. At the University of Sheffield, we tend to request very small batches of simple shapes or single bespoke items. Ian himself has been extremely helpful to everyone we have sent to his company, often taking the time to meet in person to discuss our technical drawings and make suggestions on improvements. He has been able to produce complex part geometries out of materials that other companies would often refuse to do. We have been recommending ICPE to all our colleagues and project partners for work they are struggling to get done with their normal suppliers."
Ben Thomas, Research Associate, The University of Sheffield
