The founder of Tokyo Resistance Wire Co., Ltd., Yukio Iino, was assigned as a technical researcher at the Naval Technical Research Institute during World War II. In the midst of the war, when Japan was heavily reliant on importing specialized alloys, Iino undertook research and development to manufacture resistance wires domestically. He also provided technical guidance to steel melting manufacturers, demonstrating his significant contribution to the domestic production of these materials during a challenging time.

After World War II, Yukio Iino began working for a manufacturer of resistance wires. Leveraging his technical and research expertise, he became an engineer in the field of electric heating and resistors, developing resistance wires that met specific required specifications. This period marked the start of his significant contributions to the industry.
