Top Four Reasons For Circuit Board Failure – What’s Up With Yours?

Ah, our little green friends…the printed circuit board. Taken for granted until they fail, circuit boards are key to the operation of virtually everything these days. So if you are suspicious, or even absolutely certain, that your circuit board is the problem, you may need some advice as well as circuit board repair or replacement.

Always remember the Electronic Axis of Evil: Moisture, Heat, and Dirt. If you can avoid these, your circuit boards will last longer.

Four Top Reasons For Circuit Board Failure and Tips to Identify The Problems & Causes:


Reliability In Industrial Electronics Is King – Find Out What Else Ranks High With Plant Managers

Not surprisingly, reliability ranked the most important criteria in purchasing industrial electronics according to a recent survey by Plant Engineering & Maintenance. 

Reliability was followed, in descending order, by quality, safety, maintenance, service, price, throughput, technology, noise, speed, and “green”.

Maintenance ranked 4th out of 11 so we know it’s pretty high on your list.  Nobody wants equipment that is difficult or excessively expensive to maintain.  Downtime is lost time and lost time is lost money.  

Save money in the long run by purchasing quality industrial electronic equipment with a good warranty.  And when that warranty runs out, or the OEM does not provide responsive service, send your repairs to a reliable expert. 


Work Site Safety Attitudes Shifting

Plant safety, work site safety, worker safety -  it seems we are hearing this daily now from plant engineers around the country. 

It would appear that a cultural shift is in the wind and that safety attitudes and practices are changing – for the better.  There is a realization that a safe working environment is beneficial not only to employees but to the bottom line.

The concern is there on the part of  many CEO’s and managers but the question they often have is, “Where do we start?”  


Searchable Electronic Repair Catalog By The Item Numbers

Our very competent Web Master just finished the huge task of developing and deploying a searchable Electronic Repair Catalog on the ACS website. We hope you find it helpful in locating the part numbers for your damaged items needing electronic repair services.

The catalog can be searched two ways.  Either by letter or part number. For example, if you have a Mitsubishi Servo Motor that needs repair, click the “M” and you will be taken to the page with all the manufacturers that begin with “M”.

If you have a model number like, 1326AB-B520E-S2L, Enter it in the search box at, http://www.acsindustrial.com/repair-catalog/search.php?c=m.
