Advetech was born out of the union of P.I.C., Inc. and Cowles Tool Company in the spring of 1999.  Beginning in 2000, Advetech and its divisions, PIC and Cowles Tool were widely accepted within the manufacturing community.   

In December of 2000, Cowles Tool moved it's production facilities to Canfield, Ohio to form a more perfect production facility.
