ASTON Product Lines We Repair
Our engineers are trained on the full ASTON product range. Below are the major product families we service.
ASTON PLC Series
Compact and modular programmable logic controllers for discrete and hybrid automation. Common faults include corrupted program memory, faulty digital/analog input modules, communication port failures, and power supply instability. Indian plants often report issues after voltage fluctuations and dust accumulation in harsh manufacturing environments.
ASTON VFD Drive Family
Variable frequency drives for AC motor control in pumps, fans, compressors, and conveyor systems. Repair issues include IGBT module failure, DC bus capacitor degradation, encoder/feedback wiring faults, and thermal runaway in humid Indian factory conditions. Overload and short-circuit protection circuits frequently require recalibration.
ASTON Servo Amplifiers
Precision servo motor amplifiers for positioning, winding, and spindle drive applications in textile, print, and machinery sectors. Common failures include resolver/encoder interface corruption, feedback loop oscillation, phase imbalance detection errors, and firmware version incompatibility after incorrect updates.
ASTON Communication Modules
Industrial gateway and interface modules supporting PROFIBUS, MODBUS, ETHERNET/IP, and CANopen protocols. Failures often stem from corrupted bootloader code, transceiver chip damage from electrical transients, connector corrosion, and protocol stack software conflicts in retrofit installations.
ASTON Power Supply Modules
Industrial-grade DC and redundant power supplies for control cabinets and automation racks. Typical faults include bulk capacitor failure under high ambient temperature (common in Indian summers), transformer winding breakdown, rectifier diode degradation, and overvoltage protection circuit malfunction.
ASTON HMI Touch Panels
Industrial touchscreen display terminals for process visualization and operator interface. Common issues include LCD backlight failure, resistive touch layer delamination, microcontroller watchdog resets, SD card file system corruption, and Ethernet interface port failures in dusty plant environments.

Every repaired unit ships with a 6-month comprehensive warranty on parts and labour. Our repair success rate is over 94% across all brands.
All-India Service
Couriered repairs accepted from any city in India. Doorstep pickup available in Vadodara, Mumbai, Pune, Ahmedabad, Surat, Chennai, and more.
Common ASTON Equipment Faults We Fix
Based on 30+ years of repair data, these are the most frequent failure modes we see in ASTON equipment arriving at our workshop.
- ✓ASTON PLC program memory corruption error — Unexpected power loss during data write cycles, or faulty EEPROM chip caused by voltage spikes on Indian AC supplies. Firmware becomes unreadable and PLC fails to boot.
- ✓ASTON VFD drive fault code F012 (IGBT overheat) — High ambient temperature combined with inadequate heatsink cooling in poorly ventilated Indian cabinets. IGBT thermal sensor detects junction temperature above 95°C and triggers protective shutdown.
- ✓ASTON servo amplifier feedback loop oscillation — Encoder or resolver cable shielding degraded, introducing EMI noise from adjacent motor power cables. Feedback signal becomes noisy, causing proportional-integral-derivative (PID) loop to hunt and overshoot target position.
- ✓ASTON communication module gateway timeout errors — PROFIBUS or MODBUS transceiver chip damaged by lightning surge or sustained electrical noise on fieldbus wiring. Protocol stack firmware cannot establish handshake with master PLC.
- ✓ASTON power supply module blown rectifier diodes — Three-phase AC input imbalance or single-phase failure common in rural Indian plants causes reverse current flow during voltage dip recovery. Rectifier bridge diodes conduct excessively and fail.
- ✓ASTON HMI touchscreen LCD backlight failure — High ambient operating temperature (45-50°C common in Indian manufacturing) accelerates backlight inverter capacitor degradation. Display becomes dim or black despite correct power supply.

Frequently Asked Questions — ASTON Repairs
Do you repair ASTON equipment anywhere in India?+
Yes. Synchronics repairs the full ASTON product range — PLCs, VFD drives, servo amplifiers, communication modules, power supplies, and HMI panels. We offer PAN India door pickup and return from Mumbai, Delhi, Pune, Chennai, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Jaipur, Kolkata, and all other major cities. All repairs are handled at our 180-engineer facility in Vadodara, Gujarat with 24-48 hour turnaround for most units.
What is the typical repair cost for an ASTON VFD drive in India?+
ASTON VFD repair costs depend on the specific fault and drive model. IGBT replacement typically costs INR 8,000-15,000. Capacitor and rectifier repairs cost INR 5,000-8,000. Full drive diagnostics, repair, testing, and 12-month warranty are included. We provide detailed quotation after free assessment. Emergency expedited repairs complete in 24 hours.
Can Synchronics repair ASTON PLC firmware corruption without original program backup?+
Yes, with limitations. If ASTON program code is lost, Synchronics can recover corrupted memory using specialized diagnostic equipment and may partially reconstruct application logic. We recommend customers always maintain digital backups of PLC programs. We also provide firmware recovery and reprogramming service with customer's original source code or from plant documentation.
Does Synchronics stock ASTON spare parts for faster repairs?+
Synchronics maintains a stock of common ASTON replacement components including IGBT modules, electrolytic capacitors, rectifier diodes, encoder cables, communication interface ICs, and power supply modules. For rare or obsolete ASTON parts, we can source through our international supplier network within 3-7 days. We also perform component-level repairs rather than whole-module replacement where cost-effective.
What warranty does Synchronics provide on ASTON equipment repairs?+
All ASTON repairs include 12-month comprehensive warranty covering the repaired component against defects in workmanship and materials. Warranty covers parts and labor for repeat failures. We also provide optional extended 24-month warranties for critical production equipment. Warranty terms are provided in writing with each repair completion certificate.
How do I send my ASTON 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 ASTON 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 ASTON 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 ASTON 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.
