DRAFTO Product Lines We Repair
Our engineers are trained on the full DRAFTO product range. Below are the major product families we service.
DRAFTO Digitizer Series
High-precision electromagnetic digitizers for CAD input and technical drawing capture. Common issues include loss of cursor detection, digitizer tablet calibration drift, and stylus pressure sensor failure.
DRAFTO Plotter Systems
Large-format technical plotters for blueprint and technical drawing output. Repair focuses on stepper motor failures, pen carriage misalignment, and firmware corruption affecting paper feed mechanisms.
DRAFTO Cursor & Puck Devices
Wireless and wired input cursors for digitizer tablets. Frequent failures include sensor chip degradation, wireless receiver module faults, and button contact corrosion.
DRAFTO Control Electronics
USB and parallel port interface boards for legacy CAD systems. Common defects involve RS-232 converter IC failure, firmware EEPROM corruption, and connector pin oxidation.
DRAFTO Calibration & Firmware Tools
Software and calibration cartridges for precision adjustment and system diagnostics. Issues include corrupted firmware images and incompatible software driver loading on modern Windows systems.

Common DRAFTO Equipment Faults We Fix
Based on 30+ years of repair data, these are the most frequent failure modes we see in DRAFTO equipment arriving at our workshop.
- ✓Digitizer cursor position drift and accuracy loss — DRAFTO digitizer tablets experience electromagnetic interference sensitivity and capacitive coupling degradation in the coil grid over 10-15 years of operation. Humidity exposure and cable shielding deterioration amplify this drift, causing stylus coordinates to deviate from actual pen position.
- ✓DRAFTO plotter stepper motor stall and paper feed failure — Stepper motor coils in DRAFTO plotters burn out due to sustained overload from worn paper feed rollers, or from thermal cycling in non-climate-controlled Indian facilities. Phase winding insulation breaks down, causing intermittent motor lockup.
- ✓Wireless DRAFTO cursor connection drops and pairing loss — DRAFTO wireless cursors operate on proprietary 2.4 GHz frequency bands susceptible to interference from WiFi, mobile networks, and industrial machinery common in Indian manufacturing plants. Receiver module crystals drift, and battery connector oxidation degrades signal strength.
- ✓DRAFTO USB interface module fails to enumerate on Windows or AutoCAD — Legacy DRAFTO USB interface boards use older chipsets (FTDI, Prolific) that conflict with Windows 10/11 driver updates. EEPROM firmware becomes corrupted, or USB power delivery fails due to capacitor aging and electrolytic breakdown.
- ✓DRAFTO plotter pen carriage misalignment and tracking error — DRAFTO carriage rails accumulate dust and paper debris common in open-floor Indian design studios. Lead screw threading wears; belt tension decays from heat and age. Ball bearing friction increases, causing stepper motor to slip and pen position to deviate from intended coordinates.
- ✓DRAFTO firmware calibration cartridge read and write errors — DRAFTO calibration cartridges use EEPROM storage prone to bit rot after 15+ years. Cartridge connector pins oxidize from humidity; firmware images become corrupted during power loss. Interface boards may have failing I2C bus components preventing cartridge communication.

Frequently Asked Questions — DRAFTO Repairs
Do you repair DRAFTO equipment anywhere in India?+
Yes. Synchronics repairs the full DRAFTO product range — digitizers, plotters, wireless cursors, interface modules, and calibration systems. We offer PAN India doorstep pickup from Mumbai, Delhi, Pune, Chennai, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Bangalore, and all major cities. All repairs are conducted at our ISO-certified facility in Vadodara, Gujarat, with 7-10 day turnaround for most DRAFTO units.
My DRAFTO digitizer works intermittently on one side of the tablet — what could be wrong?+
Partial digitizer failure typically indicates coil grid damage in that region, or a failing multiplexer IC on the control board. This is common in DRAFTO tablets exposed to electromagnetic interference or physical impact. Synchronics diagnosds this with our precision oscilloscope and grid testing rig. We replace coil sections or control electronics depending on fault location, then re-calibrate the entire tablet to restore uniform accuracy.
Can you help me get my DRAFTO plotter working with modern Windows 10 AutoCAD?+
Absolutely. Legacy DRAFTO USB and parallel port interfaces often conflict with Windows 10/11 driver architecture. Synchronics updates EEPROM firmware, installs compatibility patches, and tests integration with current AutoCAD versions. Many Indian design studios continue using DRAFTO systems with modern CAD software — we specialize in bridging this gap without replacing your proven hardware.
What is your turnaround time for DRAFTO repairs in Vadodara?+
Standard DRAFTO repairs (calibration, motor replacement, interface repair) take 7-10 working days from receipt. Complex digitizer grid repairs or firmware restoration may extend to 12-14 days. We offer express service (5 days) for critical design studio systems. Express courier pickup and delivery are available PAN India at additional charge.
Do you stock DRAFTO spare parts and replacement modules?+
Synchronics maintains inventory of common DRAFTO components: stepper motors, electromagnetic coil assemblies, USB interface modules, wireless receiver units, and calibration cartridges. For obsolete or non-stocked parts, we source directly from DRAFTO Europe or authorized distributors. We can typically complete repairs using OEM or equivalent high-quality components within your budgeted timeline.
How do I send my DRAFTO 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 DRAFTO 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 DRAFTO 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 DRAFTO 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.
