LIKA Equipment We Repair — By Category
LIKA Product Lines We Repair
Our engineers are trained on the full LIKA product range. Below are the major product families we service.
Incremental Rotary Encoders
LIKA incremental encoders generate A/B/Z pulse signals for position feedback in servo motors and spindle drives. Common faults include signal dropout due to cable damage, worn bearing preload causing runout, and connector pin corrosion in humid industrial environments.
Absolute Rotary Transducers (SSI)
Single-turn and multi-turn absolute encoders transmit position data via SSI or CANopen protocols without loss of reference on power loss. Repair issues typically involve calibration drift, protocol communication faults, and battery degradation in multi-turn versions.
Linear Position Sensors
LIKA linear transducers measure linear displacement in injection molding, hydraulic systems, and assembly automation. Faults include sealing degradation allowing contamination, internal potentiometer wear, and amplifier circuit failure.
CANopen Absolute Encoders
Modern LIKA CANopen encoders integrate multi-turn position measurement with network communication. Common issues: CANopen node ID conflicts, firmware version incompatibility with controller software, and power supply noise affecting digital signal integrity.
Incremental Linear Encoders
Mounting-strip linear encoders used in cutting machines, CNC lathes, and press automation for precise axis positioning. Repair challenges include scale tape wear, optical sensor misalignment, and connector intermittency from vibration.
Why Choose Synchronics for LIKA Repairs?
PCB-Level Expertise
We repair down to the component level — not just swap boards. Our engineers identify root causes, replace failed IGBTs, capacitors, processors, and gate drivers on LIKA equipment.
Fast Turnaround
Standard 7–10 working days. Express 3–5 days available for critical breakdowns. Emergency same-day/next-day service for unplanned downtime.
6-Month Warranty
Every repaired unit ships with a 6-month comprehensive warranty on parts and labour. Our repair success rate is over 94% across all brands.
All-India Service
Couriered repairs accepted from any city in India. Doorstep pickup available in Vadodara, Mumbai, Pune, Ahmedabad, Surat, Chennai, and more.
Common LIKA Equipment Faults We Fix
Based on 30+ years of repair data, these are the most frequent failure modes we see in LIKA equipment arriving at our workshop.
- ✓Loss of encoder signal on incremental encoders — Cable shielding degradation, connector pin oxidation, or internal phototransistor failure in the encoder head due to moisture ingress or thermal cycling in Indian foundries and metalworking plants.
- ✓Absolute encoder zero-point drift or discontinuous jumps — Magnetic field interference from adjacent servo drives and contactors, internal potentiometer wiper wear in analog-output encoders, or SSI protocol timing violations from noisy PLC input cards.
- ✓CANopen encoder not recognized on network or intermittent comms — Node ID collision with other CAN nodes, firmware version mismatch between encoder and controller (especially after PLC firmware updates), or terminated CAN cable without proper 120-ohm termination resistors.
- ✓Linear encoder scale tape degradation or optical head misalignment — Moisture and coolant spray penetration despite sealing, mechanical damage during machine maintenance, or spindle runout causing carriage drift on precision grinding machines.
- ✓Bearing preload loss causing encoder runout and signal noise — Vibration and shock loads in punch press and shaker table environments fatigue bearing races, or thermal expansion from uncontrolled ambient temperature in poorly ventilated machine enclosures.
- ✓Connector corrosion and intermittent loose contact — Salt-air exposure in coastal Indian manufacturing zones, sulfur dioxide in steel mill environments, and condensation inside connector housings when encoders are stored or relocated.

Frequently Asked Questions — LIKA Repairs
Do you repair LIKA equipment anywhere in India?+
Yes. Synchronics repairs the full LIKA product range — incremental encoders, absolute transducers, CANopen encoders, and linear position sensors. We offer PAN India door pickup from Mumbai, Delhi, Pune, Chennai, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Nagpur, and all other cities. All repairs are completed at our ISO-certified facility in Vadodara, Gujarat, with 3-5 day turnaround for most encoder faults.
What is the typical repair cost and turnaround time for a LIKA incremental encoder?+
LIKA incremental encoder repairs typically cost INR 4,000-12,000 depending on fault severity (connector replacement vs. internal phototransistor repair). Standard turnaround is 5-7 working days. Expedited 48-hour repair is available for critical production lines. We provide detailed diagnostic reports and cost estimates before commencing repair.
Can Synchronics repair LIKA absolute encoders with SSI or CANopen output?+
Yes. We repair single-turn and multi-turn LIKA absolute encoders with SSI (Synchronous Serial Interface) and CANopen protocols. We have firmware reprogramming capability and access to LIKA diagnostic tools for protocol validation. Calibration drift common in multi-turn versions is corrected using precision test rigs and zero-point re-initialization.
My LIKA encoder was working but stopped after a PLC firmware update. Is it faulty?+
Not necessarily. Firmware version mismatch between your PLC and LIKA encoder (especially CANopen models) can cause signal loss or intermittent communication. Before sending the encoder for repair, verify your PLC firmware version and consult LIKA release notes for compatibility. Synchronics can reconfigure encoder firmware and test CANopen protocol handshake to resolve protocol conflicts without hardware replacement.
Do you offer on-site encoder repair and commissioning support?+
Yes. For large installations and critical production lines, Synchronics provides on-site diagnostic support, encoder swap-out, and commissioning across all major Indian industrial zones. Our field engineers carry spare encoder units and can perform bench testing at your facility to minimize downtime. Contact our technical support team for on-site service quotation.
How do I send my LIKA 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 LIKA 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 LIKA 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 LIKA 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.
