In 1991, Curt Couch became a U.S. distributor of
PB Swiss Tools, formerly known as PB Baumann
Hand Tools. This business led to his further
research in the surface mount technology and
electronics manufacturing industry and,
ultimately, the creation of COT.
Since then, COT has transitioned successfully
into minority status with Mrs. Renee Couch as
President & CFO and Curt Couch as acting Vice
President. Mrs. Couch stated, “We believe this
strategy moves us towards additional
opportunities in new areas of contract manufacturing and industry protocols to mitigate minority
businesses, both civilian and government.”
COT manufactures high-quality, low-cost nozzles and associated components for the SMT & PCB
assembly industries for more than 25 years. Proven engineering expertise, coupled with a
commitment to manufacturing excellence and investment in the very latest production equipment,
ensures that innovation and competitiveness is applied to COT’s extensive product range.
Couch added, “Celebrating 34 years of marriage and 30 years of business has always been a JOINT
effort. Vision and creativity, along with perseverance and resilience have been the key principals for
our sustainability.”
