Repair. Save. Protect.

Electronics repairs for industry.

• Your electronics no longer work?
• No documents available?

• No more support from the manufacturer?

• The manufacturer wants to replace the entire control system?

We often hear this from our customers. In the vast majority of cases, we can still offer assistance. Often it is only individual components such as electrolytic capacitors that make a control unit or device unusable. Below you will find the next steps.

What does a repair cost?

• The following prices apply from 1 April 2025, excluding VAT.
• A cost estimate/fault analysis costs a flat rate of CHF 200. This amount is therefore always due, even if the appliance cannot be repaired.
• The repair prices are then estimated by us and fall into one of the following categories. These include fault analysis, repair and any materials:
• Repair
• Category 1: CHF 450.-
• Category 2: CHF 900.-
• Category 3: CHF 1800.-

• Express: at cost
• Express surcharge
• Start of repair within 4h: CHF 200.-
• Start of repair within <24h: CHF 100.-

What information do we need?

It is an invaluable advantage if all available documentation and information on the functioning of the circuit board or component is supplied.

• As detailed a description of the fault as possible
• Electrical diagrams and connection plans
• Photos of the connections before removal

Ideally, we can use this information to reproduce the fault and test the repaired component. However, the success of a repair can often only be verified at the end customer's premises.

Is a repair worthwhile?

You have to decide. The following reasons speak in favour of a repair:

What can be repaired?

• In principle, many things can be repaired. However, the success of a repair can never be guaranteed.

• We mainly repair electronic components for industry, not for private households
• We have already repaired hundreds of industrial electronic circuit boards or complete devices. Here are a few examples:
• Servo controllers and frequency converters from various manufacturers (Lenze, Baumüller, Siemens, Control Techniques, KEB, etc.)
• Touch panels from various manufacturers
• DC drive controllers from various manufacturers
• Power supply units from industrial PCs
• PLC controllers from various manufacturers (IO cards and CPU modules)

What can't you repair?

• Modern mobile phones/tablets etc.: Due to the high integration density, only component replacement is possible here. We can't do that. You are better off at your mobile phone repair shop.

• Consumer electronics / toys: In principle, we can repair these. However, the repair will quickly cost more than a new item. Perhaps you can find a repair café near you at repair-cafe.ch? They usually do this at cost price.
• Car electronics. Please contact the relevant brand representatives.
• Bicycle and pedelec batteries. Please contact your bicycle dealer.

Do I have a guarantee on the repair?

No. It is possible that the device may fail again the following day due to another defective component. Of course, we cannot accept any liability for this. However, experience has shown that repaired appliances will run again for years.
