History

In 1913, Kazuo Chino founded private company named Chino Works at Shitaya, Tokyo. He started manufacture and sell chemical machinery and rubber products first. Then he manufacture and sell physics and chemistry instruments, electric furnace/thermostatic bath and measuring instruments though, the factory was burnt down by Great Kanto earthquake[3] in 1923. He built a new factory at Nakamaru, Itabashi and resumed business again.

In 1936, established stock organization named Chino Works, Ltd.(Current: Chino Corporation) The new factory was burnt down again by an air raid during the Second World War though, restarted business limited to measuring instruments. In that case original electronic recorder and oscillation type indicating controller were a big hit with commercialization.

In 1962, listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, Second Section, in 1979 listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, First Section.[4] In 1986,renamed to CHINO Corporation to commemorate the 50th anniversary.By spreading product range to infrared thermometer, thermal imaging system, testing/controlling equipment and Fuel Cell performance testing equipment, Chino had actual sales results to most of domestic automobile manufacturer and the affiliated manufacturers in Japan. CHINO has 12 subsidiary companies including six global, three domestic factories, 21 domestic sales branches and 37 overseas dealers/distributors in 34 countries to the present.

Awards[15]

non-contact thermal imaging sensor TP-S

Recently, thermal image temperature checker [Easy Thermo TP-S] won the Good Design Award 2014 (Award No.14G070547) in category of Equipment and facilities for manufacture, development or production.
Because it is possible to capture the temperature in terms not a point, has been recognized, such as the body surface temperature check equipment and monitoring, in a wide range of fields today but it is expensive operation is large and complex, research institutions and some companies image of thing to use.
