ASTRO Product Lines We Repair
Our engineers are trained on the full ASTRO product range. Below are the major product families we service.
ASTRO Servo Amplifiers (ASA Series)
High-performance servo amplifiers designed for precision positioning and velocity control in CNC machinery and automated assembly lines. Common faults include encoder cable disconnection, current limiting errors, and thermal runaway due to inadequate cooling or parameter misconfiguration.
ASTRO Stepper Motor Controllers (SMC Series)
Microstepping controllers for stepper motor-driven indexing tables, conveyors, and precision feed mechanisms. Typical issues include failed output transistors from incorrect load impedance matching, microstepping resolution loss, and communication bus faults.
ASTRO Motion Interface Modules (MIM Series)
Industrial-grade motion interface cards that bridge PLC/controller systems with servo and stepper drives via analog or pulse command interfaces. Repair-critical faults include D/A converter drift, opto-isolator degradation, and noise immunity breakdown.
ASTRO Closed-Loop Positioning Systems (CLP Series)
Integrated servo solutions combining drive, controller, and encoder feedback for high-accuracy linear and rotational positioning. Common failure modes include encoder signal loss due to connector corrosion, firmware version incompatibility, and velocity feedback circuit instability.
ASTRO Power Supply Modules (PSM Series)
Regulated DC and AC power supplies for servo and stepper drive systems, rated for Indian industrial voltage fluctuations and supply transients. Faults typically involve capacitor aging, rectifier bridge failure, and thermal shutdown triggering in high-ambient environments.
Why Choose Synchronics for ASTRO Repairs?

Standard 7–10 working days. Express 3–5 days available for critical breakdowns. Emergency same-day/next-day service for unplanned downtime.
6-Month Warranty
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 ASTRO Equipment Faults We Fix
Based on 30+ years of repair data, these are the most frequent failure modes we see in ASTRO equipment arriving at our workshop.
- ✓ASTRO servo amplifier encoder communication loss — Incremental encoder connectors corrode or disconnect due to vibration in metalworking and automotive assembly plants. Cable shielding degradation also causes encoder signal noise, triggering watchdog errors and servo faults.
- ✓ASTRO stepper controller output transistor burn-out — Incorrect load impedance or winding resistance specification causes excessive phase current, overwhelming the stepper driver MOSFET output stage. This is common when retrofitting legacy indexing tables with ASTRO controllers.
- ✓ASTRO MIM module D/A converter drift causing servo oscillation — Analog output circuits degrade due to temperature cycling in textile and chemical processing plants. Reference voltage regulators develop offset, producing slowly creeping command signal bias.
- ✓ASTRO CLP closed-loop system servo tracking error alarm — Feedback loop gain tuning mismatch or encoder resolution mismatch between firmware and actual encoder specification causes position error to exceed tolerance threshold during rapid moves.
- ✓ASTRO power supply module thermal shutdown during peak load — Electrolytic capacitors age in high-temperature Indian industrial environments (40-50°C ambient), reducing capacitance and increasing ripple current. Thermal sensor sensitivity also drifts, nuisance-triggering shutdown at safe temperatures.
- ✓ASTRO servo amplifier firmware corruption or corrupted CRC — Power supply transients, surge events, or failed EEPROM write cycles corrupt servo drive firmware during parameter saving, leaving the amplifier unable to boot or recognize commands.

Frequently Asked Questions — ASTRO Repairs
Do you repair ASTRO equipment anywhere in India?+
Yes. Synchronics repairs the full ASTRO servo drive, stepper controller, motion interface module, and closed-loop positioning system range. We offer PAN India door-to-door pickup from Mumbai, Delhi, Pune, Chennai, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Jaipur, Kolkata, and all other metro and tier-2 cities. All equipment is serviced at our central facility in Vadodara, Gujarat, with 48-72 hour turnaround for most faults.
What is a typical ASTRO servo amplifier repair turnaround time?+
Most ASTRO ASA Series servo amplifier repairs — encoder signal issues, power stage replacement, thermal management — are completed within 48-72 hours. Firmware corruption or complex tuning issues may take 5-7 working days. We provide real-time repair status updates and offer expedited service for critical plant downtime situations.
Do you provide encoder calibration and tuning after ASTRO servo repair?+
Yes. Synchronics includes encoder offset calibration, servo loop gain tuning verification, and step-response testing as standard after ASTRO servo amplifier repair. We also perform no-load and full-load testing to ensure smooth operation across your actual motion profile before shipment.
Can you retrofit legacy ASTRO stepper controllers to newer motor specs?+
Yes. Many Indian textile mills and food plants upgrade motor specifications without replacing stepper controllers. Synchronics can reprogram ASTRO SMC Series current limiting, microstepping resolution, and acceleration ramp parameters to match new motor impedance. We test compatibility thoroughly to avoid transistor burn-out.
Do you repair ASTRO power supplies that have failed due to Indian grid voltage surges?+
Absolutely. ASTRO power supply modules (PSM Series) are vulnerable to voltage spikes and transient events common in Indian industrial areas. Synchronics replaces failed rectifier bridges, capacitor banks, and thermal sensors, and fits varistor-based external surge protection. We recommend UPS integration or isolation transformers for high-risk sites.
How do I send my ASTRO 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 ASTRO 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 ASTRO 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 ASTRO 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.
