01Repair
Common SIMATIC IPC477 faults we repair
Industrial panel PCs sit on the machine and run for years. Each area is tested on its own, so one bad part does not become a full replacement by default.
Touch not responding
Touch input that drifts, misses or stops working.
Power supply faults
Units that do not power up, or restart without warning.
Boot and communication faults
Machines that stop before the operating system, or lose network and interface ports.
Overheating and fan faults
Noisy or failed fans and units that shut down under heat.
Obsolete panel PC support
Repair or sourcing for older generations, with migration advice when a replacement is the better route.

Courier or pickup
Send the unit de-energised and disconnected, with its memory card or storage kept safe. Pickup can be arranged.
Diagnosis and quote
Findings first: the failed part and the repair options, before any part is replaced.
Repair and functional check
