MENTOR had a busy time at last week’s Light+Building exhibition in Frankfurt and I was there to support during the first two days of the show.
Visit MENTOR’s stand at next week’s Light & Building exhibition in Frankfurt!
MENTOR will again be exhibiting at Frankfurt’s International Light & Building Exhibition 30 March to 4 April 2014. Do visit their stand G20 in Hall 4 to learn more about MENTOR’s unique competencies in the management of light.
Mentor Electronic Components
This is a short 1m 47 sec video detailing MENTOR’s near 100 year legacy and its unique competencies in many areas of electronic components, especially opto. It is a trailer for the full movie which runs for 11m 11 secs. We did warn you (!) but actually it does a good job of explaining what MENTOR is all about.
Illuminated Switch Caps
Iluminated switch caps??! What are they and what can they do for my products? Check out this short video to understand the principles behind these innovative solutions. Then read here to learn more about the diverse options available, all as standard, low MOQ solutions.
MENTOR’s 150mm flexible light guide Part Number 1216.1013
I thought it worth reminding you about MENTOR’s 150mm long Ø3mm flexible light guide, since it always generates so much interest whenever I show a working demo to Design Engineers. Some see it as a useful workaround that could “get them out of a hole” when redesigning a product mid-life-cycle.
Southern Manufacturing & Electronics Show 2014
It was a bit of a strange Southern Manufacturing and Electronics Exhibition this year! Multitron were there supporting our sub-distributors Diamond and Foremost but on the first day it was a very frightening experience. The exhibition is held in a truly massive marquee construction (seems to be the size of Earls Court 2) and I wish it had been held there instead!
Visit to MENTOR’s HQ
I have just returned from a visit to MENTOR’s Erkrath (near Dusseldorf) HQ and as always I left feeling enthused and genuinely proud to be associated with such a fine company. A superficial observation perhaps but wherever I went I saw smart, clean, modern and tidy Design and Admin offices, nothing ostentatious but clearly well-invested.
When MENTOR claims waterproof IP68-rated Light Guides, they really have to mean it!
Moog GmbH manufactures servo controllers that really do need to be waterproof! We have just received this image showing a unit that has already been in use for a year underwater. Moog relies on the quality of MENTOR’s IP 68-rated 1282.# series light guides. You can too.
1,001 MENTOR M-Tubes featured in an Eindhoven art installation celebrating artificial light.

Perhaps we are doing something right?
October 2013 was Multitron’s busiest-ever month by some considerable margin – order intake was 70% higher than budget. Perhaps this means we are doing something right? Perhaps this means that everyone has ordered in October and we shall receive no orders in November?!
