ACS Industrial has repaired thousands of circuit boards. But have you ever wondered how and why circuit boards are made? No matter how large or small, complex or simple, the basics of circuit board development are similar.
Many questions remain unresolved as a result of recent advancements in robotics. It is intriguing to ponder issues like, “What defines a service robot?” and “What distinguishes industrial robots from service robots?” Let’s look at critical distinctions between service and industrial robots.
Electric motors are used in a myriad of engineering fields, and in most cases, the speed and torque of each motor should match the process’ desired parameters. Since this cannot happen naturally – the speed or torque can be too high or too low – an inverter is added into […]
Sometimes, keeping your business up and running is a matter of having the right technician to ensure your repair process is seamless and efficient. A repair technician will have a particular set of tasks, such as troubleshooting, repairing, testing, and maintaining equipment to keep it from breaking down. However, to […]
Circuit boards are the heart of the electronics industry. You may have found one in one of your electronic devices. While most people use electronics daily, they don’t consider or understand the technology behind them. Here is an overview of what a circuit board does to give you a better […]
If you run any industrial application that uses motion control or motion feedback, you should know that an encoder is crucial to your production. These nifty units play a vital role in production finding applications for a myriad of industrial devices, including: Often, these devices need to operate quickly and […]
“Operator heard a BANG when they turned the system on; drive does not function when power is applied.” That’s from our customer and a very unhappy scene played out in small shops and manufacturing plants around the country. A dramatic “call for help” from this ABB variable frequency drive! The result: Drive repairs needed!
