Relay, Ricoh, San-ai group
Relay slide rules were manufactured in post-war Japan, originally branded NIKKEI, by
Nippon (Japan) Slide Rule Company which was founded c1950. The company then became
San-Ai Kekki Ltd. exporting slide rules to the USA as Relay Industrial Company.
In April of 1963, the San-ai Group joined with Riken Optical Co. which was founded by Kiyoshi Ichimura
in 1938 as Riken Kankoshi Co., Ltd which manufactured sensitized paper. This was later
to become Ricoh Ltd, a Japanese conglomerate of companies. Ricoh supplied Ricoh
brand slide rules to the United States (Ricoh Industries, USA)
and to European (Ricoh Europe SA in Switzerland) markets and re-branded slide rules
to other companies such as: Alvin, Charvoz-Roos, Compass, Dietzgen, Eagle, Engineers,
Jason, Lafayette, Lietz, Tobe, Lutz, Fuji, Micronta, Omega, Paleo, Pickett (the B1 only),
Relay, Ricoh, Sans & Streiffe, SIC (Scientific Instruments Co), Skyline, SELSI,
Staedtler-Mars, J.C.Penny, and Wallace & Wallace.
