FORCE CONTROL Product Lines We Repair
Our engineers are trained on the full FORCE CONTROL product range. Below are the major product families we service.
Eddy Current Brakes - EC Series
Force Control eddy current brakes provide smooth, heat-resistant braking for hoists, cranes, and conveyor systems. Common failures include demagnetization of permanent magnets, damaged rotor discs, and control circuit burnout from moisture ingress in humid Indian factory environments.
Pneumatic Spring-Applied Brakes - PAB Series
Failsafe pneumatic brakes with spring pressure backup used in Indian textile machinery, winding equipment, and material handling. Typical faults include worn friction pads, air seal degradation, spring fatigue, and solenoid valve stiction in dusty mill environments.
Electromagnetic Clutches - EMC Series
Force Control electromagnetic clutches enable smooth torque transmission in sugar mill crushers, cement coolers, and drive systems. Repair issues stem from coil insulation breakdown, armature surface wear, bearing failure, and control relay chatter due to power supply fluctuations common in Indian industrial plants.
Control Modules and Brake Relays - BR Series
Force Control brake control modules and relay assemblies manage stopping sequences and load-holding functions. Indian manufacturers face failure from thermal cycling, loose terminal connections, contamination from cement/sugar dust, and component dry-outs during monsoon humidity swings.
Hydraulic Load-Holding Valves - HLV Series
Hydraulic check and pressure relief valves in Force Control systems prevent load drift on vertical hoists and press machines. Common repair demands include valve spool wear, contaminated hydraulic fluid damage to seals, and cartridge valve cracking from shock loads.

Common FORCE CONTROL Equipment Faults We Fix
Based on 30+ years of repair data, these are the most frequent failure modes we see in FORCE CONTROL equipment arriving at our workshop.
- ✓Eddy current brake magnet demagnetization loss — Force Control permanent magnets lose strength due to prolonged overheating from continuous duty cycles, exposure to external magnetic fields, or age-related material degradation. Indian steel mills and cement plants operating brakes 24/7 experience rapid magnet weakening, reducing braking torque and stopping distance.
- ✓Solenoid coil insulation breakdown and electrical short — Force Control electromagnetic solenoids fail when moisture, dust, and temperature cycling degrade insulation resistance. Indian textile mills and sugar factories experience rapid coil burnout during monsoon seasons and in high-humidity processing areas where hygroscopic dust accelerates copper winding corrosion.
- ✓Friction pad and disc wear causing reduced braking torque — Force Control pneumatic spring-applied brakes see friction surface wear from repeated engagement-disengagement cycles in winding equipment, conveyor drives, and material handling machinery. Indian cotton mills and printing operations with high duty cycles deplete friction pads within 18-36 months depending on load and ambient temperature.
- ✓Control relay chatter and intermittent braking function — Force Control brake relay contacts suffer from micro-arcing, voltage fluctuations, and dust contamination common in Indian industrial power supplies. Noisy grid conditions in tier-2 and tier-3 manufacturing regions cause relay coil oscillation and contact bounce, creating unpredictable brake engagement.
- ✓Hydraulic valve spool stiction and load drift on hoists — Force Control load-holding check valves develop spool stiction from contaminated hydraulic fluid, oxidation deposits, and varnish buildup. Indian sugar mill presses and vertical hoists using aged hydraulic fluid see gradual load creep and uncontrolled descent, creating critical safety hazards in high-load lifting operations.
- ✓Bearing wear and rotor wobble in electromagnetic clutches — Force Control clutch bearings deteriorate from continuous rotation under heavy load, inadequate lubrication, and thermal stress in cement cooler and mill drive applications. Indian sugar and steel facilities operating clutches in high-temperature zones exceed bearing life within 3-5 years, causing rotor imbalance and electromagnetic drag.

Frequently Asked Questions — FORCE CONTROL Repairs
Do you repair Force Control equipment anywhere in India?+
Yes. Synchronics repairs the full Force Control product range - eddy current brakes, pneumatic clutches, electromagnetic load-holding systems, and control modules across all Indian manufacturing hubs. We offer PAN India pickup and logistics from Mumbai, Delhi, Pune, Bangalore, Chennai, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Kolkata, and 50+ other cities. Same-day turnaround service available from our Vadodara, Gujarat facility, India's largest industrial electronics repair center.
What is the typical repair time for Force Control brake assemblies?+
Standard Force Control brake and clutch repairs average 5-7 working days in-house. Eddy current brake magnet replacement takes 3-4 days; solenoid coil rewinding takes 4-5 days; friction pad replacement takes 2-3 days. Emergency express service available for critical production equipment - we offer 48-hour turnaround if required parts are in stock. Synchronics maintains dedicated Force Control spare inventory for fastest repair delivery to Indian textile, sugar, and cement industries.
Can Synchronics rewind Force Control solenoid coils or do they need replacement?+
Synchronics rewinds Force Control solenoid coils in-house using our factory-grade coil winding equipment, restoring OEM specifications for voltage, wire gauge, turn count, and insulation class. Rewinding costs 35-50% less than new solenoid replacement and saves 3-4 days lead time compared to importing replacement units. We apply moisture-resistant conformal coating on rewound coils, critical for Indian sugar mills and monsoon-prone factory environments where humidity accelerates coil degradation.
How do I know if my Force Control eddy current brake magnet is failing?+
Signs of magnet failure in Force Control eddy current brakes include: longer stopping distance than design specification, rising brake temperature during normal duty, reduced holding torque on vertical loads, and audible grinding or slipping sounds. Synchronics technicians measure magnetic flux density on-site using calibrated gauss meters and compare against Force Control rated specifications. If flux is below 80% of nominal, magnet replacement is recommended to maintain safety and production standards in your hoist or crane system.
Does Force Control brake repair include load testing and certification?+
Yes. All Synchronics Force Control brake repairs include on-load functional testing on our dynamometer test stand, confirmation of stopping torque within +/- 5% of OEM nameplate, and full documentation for your maintenance records and compliance audits. We provide ISO-certified test reports and performance certificates required by Indian factories for hoist, crane, and press brake safety compliance under Factory Act regulations and DGMS guidelines for mining equipment.
How do I send my FORCE CONTROL 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 FORCE CONTROL 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 FORCE CONTROL 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 FORCE CONTROL 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.
