CRA-TEK Product Lines We Repair
Our engineers are trained on the full CRA-TEK product range. Below are the major product families we service.
CRA-TEK Servo Drive Systems
High-performance servo drives for precision positioning and closed-loop motion control. Common issues include encoder communication failures, capacitor aging causing power delivery problems, and firmware corruption leading to fault codes.
CRA-TEK Stepper Motor Controllers
Microstepping controllers for open-loop stepper motor applications in textile machinery, printing presses, and packaging equipment. Typical faults involve power stage failures, step/direction signal loss, and thermal protection shutdown.
CRA-TEK Motion Control Modules
Embedded motion control modules with Ethernet, CANopen, and analog interfaces for distributed automation. Failures often stem from communication port damage, power supply degradation, and memory errors.
CRA-TEK Integrated PLC-Motion Systems
Combined PLC and motion control platforms for flexible manufacturing systems and robotic applications. Common failures include I/O module burnout, real-time kernel corruption, and multi-axis synchronization loss.
CRA-TEK Velocity Loop Controllers
Analog and digital velocity loop circuits for spindle drives, conveyor systems, and motor speed regulation. Typical issues involve feedback circuit failures, op-amp degradation, and tuning parameter loss.

Common CRA-TEK Equipment Faults We Fix
Based on 30+ years of repair data, these are the most frequent failure modes we see in CRA-TEK equipment arriving at our workshop.
- ✓SVX servo drive encoder communication timeout error — CRA-TEK SVX drives use proprietary quadrature encoder protocols; loose ribbon cables, water ingress on motor connectors, or corrupted firmware cause loss of position feedback. This triggers E-CODE 42 (Encoder Loss) and axis shutdown.
- ✓Capacitor bank swelling and voltage regulation failure — CRA-TEK power supplies use electrolytic capacitors rated for 85°C industrial ambient; in Indian plants without adequate cooling, capacitors age prematurely, swell, and lose capacitance. This causes supply ripple, brownout faults (E-CODE 15), and intermittent drive shutdown.
- ✓STP stepper controller missing step pulses on specific axis — CRA-TEK STP controllers integrate step/direction optical isolators; dust and moisture in Indian manufacturing environments cause isolator LED failure or photodiode degradation, breaking step signal transmission to stepper windings.
- ✓MCM module Ethernet port unresponsive, CAN traffic lost — CRA-TEK MCM modules operate in factory floor environments with electromagnetic noise; Ethernet transformers saturate and CAN transceivers fail when exposed to high dV/dt from adjacent soft-starters or welding equipment. Communication fades and returns randomly.
- ✓PLC-MX real-time kernel hang, watchdog reset loops — CRA-TEK PLC-MX systems run embedded Linux with real-time scheduler; firmware updates sometimes introduce kernel deadlocks when interfacing with legacy analog I/O modules. System reboots every 2-5 minutes (watchdog timeout).
- ✓VLC velocity loop analog oscillation and motor instability — CRA-TEK VLC-1000/2000 loops depend on tuned feedback networks; thermal drift of resistor/capacitor values shifts loop phase margin. In high-temperature weaving looms and printing press environments, gain drifts cause sustained oscillation and mechanical vibration.

Frequently Asked Questions — CRA-TEK Repairs
Do you repair CRA-TEK equipment anywhere in India?+
Yes. Synchronics repairs the complete CRA-TEK product range including servo drives, stepper controllers, motion modules, PLC systems, and velocity loop circuits. We offer pan-India door pickup from Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore, Pune, Hyderabad, Chennai, Ahmedabad, Nagpur, and all other cities. All repairs are handled at our Vadodara facility with same-day triage and typical turnaround of 7-10 working days.
What is the typical repair cost for a CRA-TEK SVX servo drive?+
CRA-TEK SVX servo drive repairs typically range from INR 8,000 to 25,000 depending on fault severity. Minor issues like connector repair or firmware reload cost less; major failures involving power stage replacement or custom PCB rework cost more. Synchronics provides free diagnostic report with cost estimate before proceeding. Warranty on repairs is 12 months parts and labor.
Can Synchronics upgrade my CRA-TEK stepper controllers to newer firmware versions?+
Absolutely. Synchronics maintains CRA-TEK firmware archives and can upgrade STP series controllers to the latest stable releases. We validate firmware compatibility with your existing motor configuration and I/O wiring, then perform functional testing on actual stepper motors before return. Firmware upgrades also clean up deprecated code that sometimes causes watchdog issues in older units.
My CRA-TEK MCM-200E module shows CAN bus fault. Is it repairable?+
Yes. CAN bus faults on CRA-TEK MCM modules are usually repairable. Common causes are failed CAN transceiver ICs, damaged isolation transformers, or corrupted bootloader firmware. Synchronics diagnoses the exact fault, replaces failed components with industrial-grade equivalents, and reprograms the module. We restore full CAN communication and validate with industry-standard CANopen protocol testing. Typical repair time is 4-5 days.
Does Synchronics stock replacement parts for CRA-TEK equipment?+
Synchronics maintains inventory of high-reliability replacement components compatible with CRA-TEK drives and controllers — capacitors, op-amps, isolation transformers, power MOSFETs, optical isolators, and firmware. We do not stock original CRA-TEK PCB assemblies, but our engineers perform component-level repair and custom rework. For complete board replacement, we coordinate with authorized CRA-TEK distributors to source genuine spares at best available pricing in India.
How do I send my CRA-TEK 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 CRA-TEK 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 CRA-TEK 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 CRA-TEK 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.
