ARTEC Product Lines We Repair
Our engineers are trained on the full ARTEC product range. Below are the major product families we service.
ARTEC Real-Time Controllers
Industrial embedded controllers featuring real-time operating systems for deterministic motion control and synchronized multi-axis operations. Common issues include BIOS corruption, watchdog timer failures, and loss of real-time performance under high-frequency interrupt loads.
ARTEC Motion Control Modules
Stepper and servo drive interface cards with step/direction or analog command inputs. Frequent failures involve encoder feedback disconnection, power stage MOSFET burnout, and PWM signal generation faults causing erratic axis movement.
ARTEC Network I/O Modules
Distributed I/O controllers with EtherCAT, PROFINET, or CANopen interfaces for decentralized machine control. Common defects include network PHY layer failures, isolation barrier breakdown in galvanic isolation stages, and firmware synchronization errors.
ARTEC Industrial PC Boards
Embedded computer modules with x86 architecture for vision processing and complex logic execution. Typical repair needs include capacitor plague in power supplies, memory module failures, and thermal throttling due to heatsink detachment.
ARTEC Analog/Digital Conditioning
Signal conditioning and I/O conversion boards for sensor interfacing and actuator control. Repair challenges include instrumentation amplifier drift, ADC/DAC nonlinearity, and noise coupling in multi-layer PCBs requiring shielding restoration.

Common ARTEC Equipment Faults We Fix
Based on 30+ years of repair data, these are the most frequent failure modes we see in ARTEC equipment arriving at our workshop.
- ✓Real-time controller losing synchronization lock — ARTEC real-time controllers maintain PLL (phase-locked loop) synchronization with external clock or network timing source. Loss of lock occurs when oscillator frequency drifts beyond PLL capture range, typically due to capacitor aging in the oscillator circuit or software interrupt latency exceeding real-time guarantees.
- ✓Encoder feedback signal dropout on motion axes — ARTEC MCM modules receive differential encoder signals (A, B, Z channels) via shielded twisted-pair connectors. Signal loss results from intermittent connector corrosion in high-humidity industrial environments, shielding degradation allowing EMI pickup from nearby motor drives, or internal optocouple failure in differential receivers.
- ✓PWM output dead-time violation causing shoot-through current — ARTEC stepper and servo modules generate PWM signals with programmable dead-time to prevent simultaneous conduction of complementary power MOSFETs. Dead-time register corruption or firmware calculation errors cause overlapping high/low gate drives, resulting in transient short-circuit current spikes that damage the power stage.
- ✓EtherCAT/PROFINET frame loss and node dropout — ARTEC network I/O modules implement MAC filtering and frame queuing in firmware or dedicated network PHY silicon. Packet loss occurs due to malformed frame detection, insufficient buffering under high network traffic, corrupted MAC addresses in EEPROM, or physical layer negotiation failure with switches.
- ✓Capacitor plague and power supply voltage sag on industrial PC boards — ARTEC IPC boards use aluminum electrolytic capacitors in switching power supplies operating at 100 kHz or higher. Capacitor ESR (equivalent series resistance) increases exponentially with age and temperature cycling, causing voltage ripple amplification and output sagging under transient current demand, particularly during processor core voltage transitions.
- ✓ADC/DAC non-linearity and signal offset drift — ARTEC analog conditioning boards integrate SAR or delta-sigma ADCs and DACs with external reference buffers and precision resistor networks. Non-linearity and offset drift result from reference voltage regulator instability, PCB trace coupling between analog and digital grounds, or internal converter temperature coefficient exceeding specifications due to degraded thermal contact.

Frequently Asked Questions — ARTEC Repairs
Do you repair ARTEC equipment anywhere in India?+
Yes. Synchronics repairs the complete ARTEC product portfolio — real-time controllers, motion modules, network I/O boards, and industrial PC systems. We provide pan-India doorstep pickup from Mumbai, Delhi, Pune, Chennai, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Bangalore, and all tier-2 cities. All repairs are performed in our Vadodara, Gujarat facility with ARTEC-calibrated test equipment and original reference boards on-site.
What is the typical turnaround time for ARTEC real-time controller repair?+
ARTEC embedded controller repairs typically complete within 5-7 working days for common faults like oscillator recalibration or firmware reload. Complex cases involving board-level component replacement (FPGAs, processors) extend to 10-14 days due to programming and functional verification on real-time operating system test benches. Synchronics provides daily status updates and expedited 48-hour repair for emergency automotive production situations.
Can you repair ARTEC motion control modules with burned-out power transistors?+
Yes. Synchronics specializes in ARTEC MCM power stage repair. We identify all failed MOSFETs using thermal imaging and cross-reference original part numbers from ARTEC datasheets. Replacement transistors are soldered using controlled-temperature reflow profiling to prevent PCB laminate damage. The repaired module undergoes full PWM waveform verification and encoder feedback testing before return.
Do you provide ARTEC board-level repair or only replace entire modules?+
Synchronics performs comprehensive board-level repair on all ARTEC product lines including component-level diagnostics, capacitor replacement, IC soldering, and firmware reprogramming. We repair rather than replace whenever economically viable — this typically saves 40-60% compared to new board costs. Only unrepairable boards (broken PCB traces, shattered ceramic components) are returned for scrap value credit.
Which Indian industrial sectors use ARTEC equipment most commonly and face the highest repair demand?+
Automotive OEMs and tier-1 suppliers in Maharashtra and Gujarat utilize ARTEC controllers for robot motion synchronization and production line sequencing, representing 35% of our ARTEC repair volume. Food processing plants in UP and MP rely on ARTEC network I/O for distributed machine control. Textile machinery manufacturers in Tamil Nadu and Telangana deploy ARTEC real-time platforms for yarn tensioning and pattern control, creating steady repair demand across Indian manufacturing clusters.
How do I send my ARTEC unit for repair?+
Pack the unit securely and courier it to our Vadodara workshop. Include a note with the fault description and your contact details. We will log it into our system and WhatsApp you a job number within 24 hours of receipt. Doorstep pickup is available in Vadodara, Ahmedabad, Surat, Mumbai, and Pune.
What is the cost of repairing a ARTEC drive or PLC?+
Repair cost depends on the model and the fault. We offer a free diagnosis — once we identify the fault, we provide a fixed quotation before proceeding. Typical repairs cost 20–40% of the new unit price. We will never repair without your approval.
What warranty do you provide on ARTEC repairs?+
All repaired units carry a 6-month comprehensive warranty covering the same fault and related issues. If the fault recurs within the warranty period, we repair it free of cost.
Do you provide a no-fix, no-fee guarantee?+
Yes. If we cannot repair your ARTEC unit after diagnosis, you pay only the diagnosis fee (₹500–₹1,500 depending on the product). The unit is returned to you at no additional charge.
