Servo Motor Repair Services

Expert servo motor repair is crucial for maintaining industrial automation efficiency and minimizing production disruptions. At ACS Industrial Services, our essential servo motor repair services restore full performance, extend the lifespan of costly equipment, and help prevent expensive downtime. With advanced diagnostics, precision component replacement, and thorough performance testing, our highly trained technicians ensure maximum reliability. ACS provides expert repairs for the older AC Servo Motor, as well as the newer Brushless Servo Motor and DC Servo Motor products. As trusted servo motor repair specialists, ACS enables manufacturers to save money and helps keep critical operations running smoothly.

Servo motors never fail at a convenient time. One day your machine is holding position perfectly, the next you are chasing alarms, drift, overheating, encoder faults, or a drive that will not enable at all.

Specialized AC, DC, and Brushless Motor Repair

ACS Industrial Services provides AC servo motor repair, DC servo motor repair, and brushless servo motor repair for manufacturers and maintenance teams that need their equipment back online without paying “new motor” pricing. For more than 25 years, we’ve helped plants reduce downtime, extend the life of legacy equipment, and keep production moving with dependable, tested repairs backed by a 2-year comprehensive warranty.

Repair vs Replace

If you are weighing repair vs. replacement, here’s the simple math. Repair can save you up to 80% compared to buying new, and it often gets you running faster than waiting on lead times or hunting for discontinued models. We support all major brands, including legacy and hard-to-source servo motors.

Every unit starts with a free evaluation and a no-obligation repair quote, so you can make a decision with real information, not guesses.

Why Choose ACS Industrial Services?

When your servo motor goes down, you do not just need "a repair." You need a repair that restores performance, holds tolerances, and does not come back to bite you a month later.

ACS Industrial Services is built for that kind of work.

Here’s what you get when you send your servo motor to ACS:

  • 25+ years of servo motor repair expertise
    We’ve seen the common failures and the weird ones. That experience matters when you are trying to i pinpoint what actually failed and why.
  • Support for domestic and foreign motor models
    Whether you are running U.S. equipment, Japanese CNC platforms, or a mix of both, we repair a wide range of servo motors used across industrial environments.
  • Advanced diagnostics and dedicated test fixtures
    Accurate troubleshooting depends on proper testing. We use specialized equipment and fixtures to validate electrical health, feedback alignment, and overall performance.
  • Clear repair quotes with no hidden surprises
    After evaluation, you receive a detailed quote. If the economics do not make sense, you can decline with no obligation.
  • Highly trained technicians and in-house machining capabilities
    Many servo repairs require more than swapping parts. We have the hands-on skill and machining support to address shafts, housings, and mechanical tolerances when needed.
  • A 2-year industrial warranty on repairs
    Our repair work is backed by a comprehensive 2-year warranty on repair labor and replaced parts, unless otherwise noted on your quote.
If you need help deciding whether to repair, replace, or source an alternative, our team can talk through the options based on your unit, your timeline, and your uptime requirements.

Save Up to 80% vs. Buying New

Replacing a servo motor sounds simple until you start looking at real costs and real timelines.

New servo motors can be expensive, and lead times can stretch out quickly, especially for specialty models, foreign motors, or legacy equipment. Even when the motor is technically “available,” you may still be stuck waiting on procurement, approvals, shipping, and re-commissioning.

Repair gives you a practical alternative that often wins on both cost and time.

What customers typically see when choosing servo motor repair:

  • Savings in the 50% to 80% range compared to buying new
  • Less downtime risk by avoiding sourcing delays and backorders
  • Better continuity for legacy systems where a new motor is not a true drop-in replacement
  • Confidence in performance through full functional testing before return shipment

Standard and rush turnaround options

Turnaround depends on the motor type, damage level, and parts availability, but we aim to keep the process predictable.

  • Standard turnaround is typically about 3 weeks from quote approval. This timeframe accounts for repair work, parts, testing, and quality checks.
  • Rush Repair Service is available for urgent downtime scenarios. Many rush repairs are completed in 3 to 5 business days, and some can move even faster depending on the motor and required parts.

Our Simple Repair Process

Servo motor repair should not feel like a black box. We keep the process straightforward so you know what happens, when it happens, and what you can expect next.

1) Submit Your Unit

Start by filling out our repair form and shipping your servo motor to ACS. If you have multiple units, you can list them all in one submission. If you have fault codes, drive alarms, or notes on symptoms, include them. Even a short description helps our technicians focus their evaluation.

2) Free Evaluation

When your unit arrives, we perform a detailed diagnostic evaluation. You receive a written quote within 24 to 72 hours in most cases. Your quote will outline recommended repairs and the pricing so you can approve, decline, or ask questions before work begins.

3) Repair and Precision Testing

Once approved, our team repairs the motor using the appropriate methods for your motor type and failure mode. This may include electrical repairs, mechanical restoration, feedback device work, and alignment.

After repairs are complete, the motor is tested to confirm performance. Testing is where a good shop separates itself from a shop that just swaps parts.

4) Return Shipping

When testing is complete, your repaired servo motor is packaged and shipped back promptly so you can reinstall and get production running again.

Specialized Servo Motor Repair Services

Servo motor failures are not all the same, and neither are repairs. Some units need electrical restoration. Others need mechanical work, feedback alignment, or precision machining because OEM parts are no longer available.

Here are a few of the specialized repair capabilities we provide.

Brushless Servo Motor Repair

Brushless servos are common in modern automation and CNC systems, but they are not immune to wear, contamination, overheating, or feedback issues. We rebuild and realign brushless servo motors with a focus on restoring smooth operation, proper commutation, and reliable feedback performance.

Legacy AC Servo Motor Repair

Older AC servo motors may be discontinued, difficult to cross-reference, or expensive to replace. We specialize in precision repair of legacy and obsolete models so you can keep proven equipment running without redesigning your system around a new motor.

DC Servo Motor Repair

DC servos require a different repair approach. We repair issues involving field windings, commutators, brushes, bearings, and electrical insulation breakdown. If your DC servo is sparking, losing torque, overheating, or showing unstable speed control, repair can often restore function without replacement.

Encoder and Feedback Device Repair

Many “servo motor problems” are really feedback problems. We repair and service common feedback devices, including encoders, resolvers, and Hall-effect sensors. If your drive is throwing encoder alarms, losing position, or faulting intermittently, feedback alignment and replacement may be part of the fix.

Motor Housing and Shaft Machining

Sometimes the failure is mechanical. Damaged shafts, worn bearing surfaces, endbell issues, or custom fits can keep an otherwise repairable motor out of service. With in-house machining capabilities, we can re-machine endbells, sleeves, and custom parts when OEM replacements are unavailable.

If your motor type or component is not listed, contact us. We likely service it.
