KRAUTKRAMMER Equipment We Repair — By Category
KRAUTKRAMMER Product Lines We Repair
Our engineers are trained on the full KRAUTKRAMMER product range. Below are the major product families we service.
USXP Phased Array System
Advanced phased array flaw detection for complex geometries and fast scanning. Common repairs include PA probe connector failures, wedge degradation, software licensing issues, and signal loss in multi-element transducer arrays.
USPC Conventional Ultrasonic Flaw Detector
Portable UT instrument for weld inspection, casting quality, and corrosion mapping. Typical faults: screen display artifacts, probe port intermittency, calibration drift, battery management circuit failure, and memory loss after power disruption.
Miniscan Portable Flaw Detector
Compact, rugged ultrasonic thickness and flaw detection for field inspection. Common issues include piezo crystal degradation, DAC curve loss, analog-to-digital conversion noise, transducer impedance matching problems, and firmware corruption.
Pocket UT Thickness Gauge
Hand-held ultrasonic gauge for non-destructive thickness measurement in pipes, vessels, and plates. Repair needs: zero calibration offset, probe resonance tuning, lithium battery circuit faults, LCD segment failures, and acoustic coupling loss.
EPOCH Series Advanced Flaw Detectors
Multi-functional UT platform combining conventional flaw detection with thickness measurement and advanced signal processing. Issues include gain linearity drift, time-base instability, digitizer noise, transducer interface mismatch, and data logging circuit failure.

Common KRAUTKRAMMER Equipment Faults We Fix
Based on 30+ years of repair data, these are the most frequent failure modes we see in KRAUTKRAMMER equipment arriving at our workshop.
- ✓Krautkrammer phased array PA probe connector oxidation — Moisture ingress into multi-pin PA connectors causes corrosion of signal pins, leading to intermittent channel dropout or complete loss of array element signals. Common in humid Indian manufacturing environments and coastal facilities.
- ✓USPC display screen flickering or pixel dead zones — Krautkrammer USPC units use LCD/LED hybrid displays that degrade under thermal cycling and vibration. Poor LCD ribbon cable contact or failed backlight inverter causes partial or complete display loss in field conditions.
- ✓Miniscan ultrasonic transducer frequency drift or no signal — Krautkrammer Miniscan piezo crystals lose resonant frequency over time due to thermal cycling, mechanical shock, or acoustic impedance mismatch caused by probe wear. Crystal frequency drift of even 2-3% reduces SNR significantly in thick-section testing.
- ✓EPOCH flaw detector zero calibration offset not holding — Krautkrammer EPOCH analog signal conditioning electronics drift due to aged op-amps, unstable reference voltage regulators, or digital-to-analog converter (DAC) non-linearity. Common after 3-5 years of continuous use in foundries and steel mills.
- ✓Pocket UT thickness gauge probe acoustic coupling loss or erratic readings — Krautkrammer Pocket UT gauge relies on acoustic coupling between the probe and test surface. Worn or contaminated probe tip, degraded couplant residue, or internal acoustic matching layer delamination causes measurement instability, especially on rough or curved surfaces.
- ✓USXP phased array software licensing timeout or feature lock — Krautkrammer USXP phased array systems use time-locked software keys for advanced features like TFM (Total Focusing Method) and PAUT (Phased Array UT). Hard drive failures, BIOS clock resets, or license server communication loss can trigger feature lockout across all PA modules.

Frequently Asked Questions — KRAUTKRAMMER Repairs
Do you repair Krautkrammer equipment anywhere in India?+
Yes. Synchronics repairs the complete Krautkrammer NDT portfolio — phased array systems (USXP), conventional flaw detectors (USPC, EPOCH), Miniscan portables, and Pocket UT thickness gauges. We offer PAN India doorstep pickup from Mumbai, Delhi, Pune, Chennai, Hyderabad, Bangalore, Ahmedabad, and all manufacturing hubs. All repairs are done in our Vadodara facility with turnaround times of 5-10 working days.
Can you calibrate and certify Krautkrammer ultrasonic transducers and phased array probes?+
Absolutely. We perform full transducer resonance mapping, impedance matching verification, and frequency certification for all Krautkrammer probe types. Our lab uses traceable calibration blocks and frequency standards to ensure your USXP, USPC, Miniscan, and Pocket UT probes meet ISO 13084 and ASTM E1316 standards. Calibration reports are provided with every repair.
What is the cost of repairing a Krautkrammer USXP phased array system?+
USXP repair costs depend on the fault. Typical repairs range from Rs. 8,000-15,000 for software re-licensing and probe connector restoration, to Rs. 25,000-45,000 for digitizer card replacement or multi-channel analog circuit rebuilds. We provide a detailed quotation after free diagnosis. Genuine Krautkrammer spare parts are sourced directly or from authorized distributors to ensure warranty.
My Krautkrammer USPC display shows flickering. What could be wrong?+
USPC display flicker is usually caused by failing LCD ribbon cable connections, degraded backlight inverter circuits, or aged video driver ICs. Synchronics diagnoses the root cause using oscilloscopes and thermal imaging. Most USPC display repairs involve replacing the display assembly and recalibrating the video circuit. We also upgrade connector seals to prevent future moisture ingress — critical in humid foundry environments.
Can Synchronics source genuine Krautkrammer spare parts and replacement transducers?+
Yes. We maintain relationships with authorized Krautkrammer distributors and can source genuine spare parts, replacement transducers, calibration blocks, and couplant materials. We also stock refurbished modules for faster repairs. All spare parts come with authenticity verification and warranty. Contact our parts team for lead times and pricing on specific Krautkrammer components.
How do I send my KRAUTKRAMMER 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 KRAUTKRAMMER 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 KRAUTKRAMMER 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 KRAUTKRAMMER 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.
