GOLDSTAR Product Lines We Repair
Our engineers are trained on the full GOLDSTAR product range. Below are the major product families we service.
Goldstar GPLC Series
Compact to mid-range programmable logic controllers used extensively in Indian textile and food processing automation. Common issues include memory corruption, communication module failure, and backup battery degradation affecting real-time clock and data retention.
Goldstar HMI Touch Panel Series
Industrial touchscreen human-machine interfaces ranging from 4-inch to 22-inch displays for operator control and data visualization. Frequent failures include capacitive touch layer degradation, LCD backlight failure, and communication port corrosion in humid Indian factory environments.
Goldstar GLVFD Drive Series
Low-voltage frequency drives for three-phase AC motor control in pumps, compressors, and conveyor systems. Typical repair needs include IGBT module burnout, capacitor bank failure, and thermal management issues in high ambient Indian climates.
Goldstar Servo Drive & Motor Systems
Precision servo amplifiers and brushless servo motors for high-accuracy positioning in packaging, printing, and automotive applications. Common faults include encoder signal loss, servo loop instability, and power stage component failures.
Goldstar Communication Modules
Serial and Ethernet gateway modules enabling Goldstar PLCs to integrate with SCADA systems, MES platforms, and remote monitoring solutions. Repair focus includes protocol stack corruption, connector pin damage, and firmware version incompatibility.
Goldstar Power Supply Units
Regulated DC power supplies (24V, 48V) for Goldstar control modules and field devices. Frequent failures stem from electrolytic capacitor aging, thermal stress in Indian summer conditions, and input surge protection breakdown.

Common GOLDSTAR Equipment Faults We Fix
Based on 30+ years of repair data, these are the most frequent failure modes we see in GOLDSTAR equipment arriving at our workshop.
- ✓GPLC memory corruption and program loss — Goldstar GPLC units experience EEPROM degradation and backup battery failure (typically 3.6V lithium), causing loss of stored logic programs and real-time clock data. This is exacerbated by power supply instability common in Indian industrial grids and high ambient heat in non-air-conditioned control rooms.
- ✓HMI touchscreen unresponsive or flickering display — Goldstar GTX series touchscreens fail due to LCD backlight aging (typically 40,000-50,000 hour lifespan), capacitive touch layer contamination from dust and humidity in Indian factories, and loose internal ribbon connectors from thermal cycling between 10-50°C.
- ✓GLVFD drive IGBT module failure and phase loss — Goldstar frequency drives in Indian textile mills and chemical plants experience IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) thermal failure due to inadequate heat sink maintenance, contamination by cotton dust or chemical aerosols, and voltage spikes from inadequate motor cable shielding or grid transients.
- ✓Servo motor encoder signal loss and position error — Goldstar servo systems lose absolute position reference when incremental or absolute encoders disconnect due to loose M12 connectors, corroded pins in humid environments, or damaged encoder cable shields. This causes servo loop instability and alarm codes like 'E-ENC' or 'E-COMM'.
- ✓Communication module Ethernet timeout and data packet loss — Goldstar GCOM-Ethernet modules fail when industrial networks experience electromagnetic interference (EMI) from large motor drives, when network cables are routed near high-current power lines, or when industrial Ethernet switches drop frames due to CPU overload on older switch hardware.
- ✓Power supply unit 24V output collapse under load — Goldstar GPS series power supplies fail when electrolytic capacitors age and lose capacitance (typical life 5-10 years in 40°C ambient Indian factories), or when input rectifier diodes degrade from repetitive transient spikes during grid switchovers. Output voltage sags from rated 24V to 18-20V, causing logic module resets.

Frequently Asked Questions — GOLDSTAR Repairs
Do you repair Goldstar equipment anywhere in India?+
Yes. Synchronics repairs the full Goldstar industrial electronics range — GPLC controllers, GTX HMI panels, GLVFD drives, servo systems, communication modules, and power supplies. We offer pan-India pickup and delivery from all major cities including Mumbai, Delhi, Pune, Chennai, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Bangalore, and Kolkata. All repairs are performed at our ISO 9001-certified facility in Vadodara, Gujarat within 7-14 working days depending on fault complexity.
My Goldstar GPLC shows 'Error: Memory Check Failed' on startup. Can you fix it?+
This error indicates EEPROM corruption or backup battery failure in your Goldstar PLC. Synchronics diagnoses both issues — we test the backup battery voltage and EEPROM integrity, replace the failed 3.6V battery, and restore your program from customer backup or reverse-engineer it from hardware documentation. If your program is lost, we help reconstruct ladder logic from your original documentation or vendor manuals. Turnaround is typically 5-7 days.
How do I know if my Goldstar HMI touchscreen needs repair or just calibration?+
If your Goldstar GTX panel has slow touch response, dead zones on the screen, or flickering backlight, it likely needs professional service. Synchronics performs non-destructive testing to distinguish between firmware calibration issues (which we correct via software) and hardware failures (backlight aging, touch sensor damage) requiring component replacement. We can often repair and return your HMI within one week at competitive cost.
What is the typical lifespan of a Goldstar frequency drive in Indian industrial use?+
Goldstar GLVFD drives typically perform reliably for 10-15 years under normal operating conditions (40°C ambient, proper ventilation, clean environment). However, in harsh Indian textile mills with high dust loads or chemical plants with corrosive atmospheres, lifespan may reduce to 5-8 years due to accelerated capacitor aging and heat sink fouling. Synchronics recommends annual preventive inspection, heat sink cleaning every 6 months, and capacitor health checks — especially after 7 years of operation.
Can Synchronics repair Goldstar servo drives that are no longer manufactured or very old?+
Yes. Synchronics maintains repair capability for legacy Goldstar servo systems even if production has ended. We source compatible replacement power components (IGBTs, gate drivers), recalibrate analog feedback circuits, and test servo loop stability even for 10+ year old units. For obsolete encoder modules or custom amplifiers, we reverse-engineer solutions and integrate modern industrial electronics while preserving your existing servo motor and mechanical setup.
How do I send my GOLDSTAR 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 GOLDSTAR 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 GOLDSTAR 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 GOLDSTAR 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.
