Omron Group was founded in 1933. Mr. Ichiro Lishi set up a small factory in Osaka, called Lishi Electric Factory. There were only two employees. In addition to the production of timers, the company also specializes in the production of protective relays. The production of these two products became the starting point of Omron.
In order to adapt to the development of the times, the company unified its name and brand on the occasion of its 50th anniversary, and changed its name to "Omron Company". Products involve industrial automation control systems, electronic components, automotive electronics, social systems, medical care equipment and other fields.
