The Challenge
Loss of the servo axis stopped accurate machine movement and prevented normal production cycles.
Diagnosis
- The DC bus, IGBT stage, driver board, current feedback, encoder interface, control power, communication circuitry, and cooling system were evaluated.
Our Solution
- Failed electronic components were replaced where required, PCB defects and solder joints were restored, cooling was serviced, and the drive was tested with compatible feedback or motor simulation.
1. BEFORE
2. DISASSEMBLY
3. INSPECTION
4. FUNCTIONAL TESTING
Testing Performed
- Power-up test; DC-bus test; power-stage test; encoder/feedback test; communication test; axis enable test; thermal burn-in.
Final Result
The reference repair process restores normal functional operation after the unit passes the defined electrical, communication, motion, or load checks applicable to the equipment.
Common Fault Codes & Causes
- FLT S02 – Motor commutation fault: Commutation/feedback or motor wiring issue.
- FLT S03 – Motor overspeed factory limit: Motor exceeded factory overspeed threshold.
- FLT S04 – Motor overspeed user limit: Configured overspeed limit exceeded.
- FLT S05 – Motor overtemperature factory limit: Motor temperature exceeded factory threshold.
- FLT S07 – Motor thermal overload factory limit: Thermal overload from sustained motor load.
- FLT S08 – Motor thermal overload user limit: Configured motor thermal limit exceeded.
- FLT S10 – Motor encoder data loss: Feedback/encoder cable or communication problem.
- FLT S11 – Motor feedback loss: Encoder/feedback signal lost.
- FLT S16 – Drive overcurrent: Excessive output current, short circuit or load issue.
- FLT S25 – Drive overtemperature: Drive thermal/cooling issue or overload.
Preventive Maintenance
- Inspect motor and feedback cables, maintain cabinet cooling, prevent overloads, check grounding, and investigate repeated fault codes before continued operation.
