At our Chantilly, Virginia electronics laboratory, Apex Industrial Control focuses on component-level bench diagnostics and repair for industrial automation hardware. Rather than defaulting to costly whole-unit assembly replacements, our technicians isolate root-cause failures down to discrete power semiconductors, gate drivers, optocouplers, and aging electrolytic capacitor banks across multi-layer circuit boards. Our core bench capabilities encompass Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) repair, PLC and I/O module restoration, AC servo drive and amplifier rebuilding, and HMI touch panel refurbishment. Every overhauled unit undergoes dynamic load bank or closed-loop 460V motor dynamometer validation before return shipment, backed by a flat $49 diagnostic evaluation and our 6-to-12-month operational warranty. Explore our complete industrial electronics repair services to schedule bench testing.
Diagnostic Evaluation — $49 • 6-Month Warranty (12 Months on VFD & PLC Repairs)
