Nichiden Kogyo Co., Ltd. was established in July 1948 in Shinagawa, Tokyo, with capital of 1 million yen. From its founding the company oriented itself toward automatic control equipment, a field in which it describes itself as having been a pioneer for roughly eighty years. Through the 1960s and 1970s the company expanded its manufacturing base and capital. In May 1963 it opened a factory in Fujisawa, Kanagawa. Capital was increased to 70 million yen in May 1967, to 120 million yen in November 1974, and to 240 million yen in June 1977. In April 1983 the head office was relocated from Shinagawa, Tokyo to Fujisawa, Kanagawa, consolidating the company in its present industrial location.

In the 2000s the company formalized its quality and environmental management systems, obtaining ISO 9001 certification in March 2003 and ISO 14001 certification in October 2004. Over time Nichiden Kogyo became a member of the Ryoka Group (菱華グループ), a Japanese industrial group. Within the group, Nichiden Kogyo is the company responsible for product development of various automatic control devices, while sister companies such as Ryoka Sangyo, Ryoka Kogyo, Ryoka Tec and Ryoka (Malaysia) Sdn.
