NORBAL Equipment We Repair — By Category
NORBAL Product Lines We Repair
Our engineers are trained on the full NORBAL product range. Below are the major product families we service.
NORBAL Electromagnetic Brakes
Spring-applied, solenoid-released safety brakes used in lifting equipment, hoists, and vertical motion applications. Common issues include solenoid coil burnout, friction disc glazing, inadequate holding torque, and wear in the spring retraction mechanism.
NORBAL Electromagnetic Clutches
Precision dry-friction clutches for synchronized drive engagement in textile machinery, packaging lines, and printing presses. Typical faults: slipping engagement, incomplete disengagement, overheating of friction surfaces, and solenoid pull-in failures.
NORBAL Motion Control Modules
Electronic control units and interface boards managing brake-clutch sequences in automated machinery. Repair needs include relay failures, logic circuit degradation, sensor input faults, and power supply rectification issues.
NORBAL Friction Material Assemblies
Replacement disc packs and friction linings for NORBAL clutches and brakes experiencing wear. Worn friction surfaces cause slip, heat generation, and inconsistent torque transmission in high-cycle applications.
NORBAL Solenoid Coil Assemblies
Solenoid actuators and coil windings for brake and clutch engagement. Common failures: insulation breakdown, winding short circuits, inadequate magnetic pull force, and thermal overload in continuous-duty applications.

Couriered repairs accepted from any city in India. Doorstep pickup available in Vadodara, Mumbai, Pune, Ahmedabad, Surat, Chennai, and more.
Common NORBAL Equipment Faults We Fix
Based on 30+ years of repair data, these are the most frequent failure modes we see in NORBAL equipment arriving at our workshop.
- ✓Solenoid coil burnout — no brake release — NORBAL solenoid windings fail due to sustained overvoltage, contamination-induced insulation breakdown, or duty cycle exceeding rated continuous load. Once coil insulation fails, the solenoid cannot generate pull-in force, leaving the brake spring-applied and locked.
- ✓Clutch slipping during engagement — torque loss — NORBAL friction disc surfaces glaze or wear after high-cycle operation in textile machines and packaging lines. Oil contamination or inadequate normal force application reduces friction coefficient, causing slip instead of locked-rotor engagement.
- ✓Incomplete brake disengagement — drag torque present — NORBAL spring-applied brake friction pads stick to rotor due to corrosion, contamination, or mechanical binding in the solenoid release linkage. The brake spring force cannot be fully overcome, leaving residual drag torque on the driven equipment.
- ✓Solenoid pull-in force insufficient — sluggish engagement — NORBAL solenoid air gap increases due to wear in the plunger assembly, spring fatigue, or contamination in the magnetic path. Insufficient magnetic attraction prevents rapid clutch engagement or brake release, causing jerky operation and lost production cycles.
- ✓Thermal overload shutdowns — intermittent operation — NORBAL electromagnetic brakes and clutches overheat due to continuous solenoid energization, slipping friction surfaces dissipating excessive energy, or poor heat dissipation in confined mounting spaces. Built-in thermal sensors trigger shutdown to protect the unit.
- ✓Electronic logic module malfunction — sequence failure — NORBAL motion control modules experience relay chattering, capacitor failure, or logic gate degradation after prolonged operation in vibration-heavy environments like textile mills. Sensor input circuits may fail due to connector corrosion or EMI ingress.

Frequently Asked Questions — NORBAL Repairs
Do you repair NORBAL equipment anywhere in India?+
Yes. Synchronics repairs the complete NORBAL product range — electromagnetic brakes, clutches, solenoid coils, friction assemblies, and motion control modules. We offer PAN India door pickup from Mumbai, Delhi, Pune, Bangalore, Chennai, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Surat, and all other cities. All repairs are completed at our facility in Vadodara, Gujarat, with 10-15 day turnaround for most NORBAL assemblies.
Can you replace NORBAL friction discs and what is the lead time?+
Yes. Synchronics stocks genuine NORBAL friction disc packs and lined assemblies for all common brake and clutch models. For in-stock items, we can re-friction your NORBAL assembly within 5-7 days. If we need to source specific material from Switzerland or via our supplier network, lead time is 15-20 days. We test all replaced friction surfaces under dynamic load before dispatch.
What is your warranty on NORBAL brake and clutch repairs?+
All NORBAL repairs carry a 12-month warranty against defective workmanship and component failure. Solenoid rewinds, friction disc replacements, and control module repairs are tested to factory specifications and certified before dispatch. Wear items like friction material are excluded from warranty but guaranteed to perform to rated torque and life cycle when installed per NORBAL guidelines.
How do I know if my NORBAL solenoid coil needs rewinding?+
Signs of NORBAL solenoid failure include: no brake release despite power applied, sluggish or incomplete clutch engagement, burnt insulation smell, and high winding resistance (>25 ohms variance from baseline). Send us the solenoid assembly or photos, and our engineers will test it free of charge. Most burnt NORBAL coils can be rewound to original specifications within 3-5 days.
Do you offer preventive maintenance contracts for NORBAL equipment?+
Yes. Synchronics offers annual PM contracts for NORBAL brakes and clutches in high-duty textile mills, packaging lines, and material handling facilities. We schedule quarterly inspections, friction surface condition monitoring, solenoid force verification, and thermal testing. Preventive component replacement (coils, friction kits, seals) is available on contract, reducing unplanned downtime in your production environment.
How do I send my NORBAL 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 NORBAL 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 NORBAL 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 NORBAL 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.
