In a report in the news on Schweizer Fernsehen on the subject of automotive suppliers in Switzerland, André Maurer (CEO) provides his opinion on how the production industry in Switzerland can assert itself in this environment.

Instead of telephones, today Asetronics produces power-saving LED lights. The Bern company originating from an Ascom subsidiary has embarked in a new field as an expert thanks to the idea. Asetronics anticipates good opportunities here due to the importance of saving power

In a contribution to the programme "Einstein" on Schweizer Fernsehen, Asetronics demonstrates how the quality of light emitting diodes - in short LEDs - is making rapid progress. Asetronics is realising innovative solutions in the fields of medicinal, workplace and exterior lighting, which utilise the advantages of LED technology.

At the Electronica 2010 trade fair from the 9th – 12th November in Munich (Hall A3 Stand 107), Asetronics is introducing the product that will replace OSRAM OSTAR Lighting, the ASELight STAR. Working together with OSRAM Opto Semiconductors the successor product was developed on the proven basis of the predecessor LED, and will be new and exclusively produced and sold by Asetronics.

Within the framework of an interview on the Swiss radio station DRS, André Maurer (CEO) and Guido Perrelet (CTO) provide their opinions on the significance of the innovation in the field of LEDs.

The interview

The lighting specialist Asetronics has fitted the first energy-saving street lights for test purposes in the city of Bern. The company now wishes to convince those responsible to retrofit the entire federal city.

Energy-saving lights in Bern

Asetronics AG is now a partner of the LED Light For You network and has been certified for thermal, optical and electronic solutions for the EU.

LED Light For You

The lighting specialist Asetronics expands its commercial activities: Working together with Brüco, the former Ascom subsidiary is producing energy-saving street lighting. Testing will take place in Bern soon

A high quality light and good Colour Rendering Index, deep illumination although no shade, intensive clear light without glare, a high luminance although no heat radiation... the requirements applicable to lighting systems in medical engineering are high and demand a tailored and well-conceived concept as well as professional execution.

In order that overheating does not adversely affect the efficiency and long-term stability of the LED, the Bern-based technology company Asetronics is optimising its LED lights through FEM simulations.

Our answer to the requisite heat management for ever-smaller semiconductors and power LEDs with increased power density.

Further information in the specialist report

Three years after parting with Ascom, Asetronics has set the course for the future: The company soon intends to generate half of its sales through electronics for light diodes - which should someday replace incandescent bulbs.
