A friend of the founder of Omron Electronic, Kazuma Tateisi, who was also, an X-ray salesman, told him in 1932 that a high-precision timer for X-ray photography. That could operate precisely at 1/20 of a second speed would be a huge success. Mr. Tateisi had the concept of using an induction-type protective relay that he had worked on in his previous position at Inoue also, Electric Manufacturing after being inspired by his friend’s comment. The timer drawing was finished by Mr. Tateisi after a month of trial and error. In 1933, he shipped a crude prototype to the Nissei Hospital in Osaka, where it was put to the test and found to work effectively at the needed speed of 1/20 of a second. the medical facility firmly.
1935 saw the opening of a relay factory.
Creation of a multipurpose relay
As X-ray timer manufacturing progressively increased, Mr. Tateisi extended his sales channels and created an induction-type protection relay for use in power switchboards based on the voltage relay he had previously used for X-ray timers. Japan was affected by Typhoon Muroto in 1934. Typhoon-related repairs led to a spike in demand for protective relays, which persuaded Mr. Tateisi to bet the future of the business on relays.

Expanding Automation Devices in 1943
Japanese precision switches were produced with success. The Aeronautics Laboratory at the University of Tokyo was invited. OMRON also, work on local manufacturing of the precision switch in 1941. This switch touted greater durability.
Secondly, OMRON developed the precision switch after much trial and error—it was the first of its type in Japan. Because of its commitment to research and development. Omron Electronic was able to lead the way in the creation of control components. As automation became increasingly widespread in Japan. There was a surge in demand for high-performance, precise switches that could resist more than 100 million cycles. Mr. Tateisi argued that this could only be accomplished by designing a contactless (solid-state) switch. and he tasked his engineers with making one. The “Seven Samurai” study group, made up of seven young researchers, finally achieved success. At the 1960 Osaka International Trade Fair, this novel discovery—dubbed the “dream switch”—was exhibited. It was well accepted, which sped up electronics integration into automation.
