Warranty & Support

Our VFD repair service in Cleveland begins with a comprehensive diagnosis, performed either on-site at your facility or in our state-of-the-art shop, to identify the precise root cause of the failure. We then perform true component-level repairs, meticulously replacing failed components like IGBTs, capacitors, or diodes. Unlike other services that just swap expensive boards, this detailed approach provides a more reliable, cost-effective fix by addressing the specific problem, saving you significant money compared to a full unit replacement.

Our commitment to quality extends far beyond the initial repair. After the fix, every unit undergoes preventative maintenance where we clean the drive and check for signs of heat stress or contamination to prevent future issues. The most critical step is our rigorous load testing, where we put your drive on a dynamometer to simulate the real-world operational stress of your application. This guarantees performance, allowing us to back every VFD repair we complete for our Cleveland clients with a comprehensive warranty for your total peace of mind.
