Industrial Circuit Board and PCB Repair — Across Europe
Machine down because of a board that's out of production? A burnt-out SMD component, a broken PCB trace, a BGA that needs rework? Wherever you are in Europe, ship the board to our workshop: we work on circuit boards of every type and sector with professional micro-soldering equipment and over 30 years of experience. With courier shipping, distance doesn't significantly affect turnaround within the EU, though customs clearance can add time for shipments from the UK or Switzerland.
Circuit Board Repair for Every Sector
When a circuit board fails, full replacement is often impossible (the component is out of production, the model obsolete, the cost prohibitive) or counterproductive (weeks of machine downtime, loss of custom configuration). CET Point Elettronic offers a fast, reliable alternative: board-level repair using professional micro-soldering equipment, fault-finding on multilayer PCBs and reconstruction of damaged sections. We work for private individuals, businesses, workshops, factories, service centres and installers.
Sectors We Serve
- Industrial and manufacturing — PLC control boards, CNC boards, motor drives, inverter boards, sensors, industrial power supplies, UPS
- Automotive — ECU and BCM control units, instrument clusters, servo control boards, ABS/ESP boards (component-level work only, not reprogramming)
- Medical — diagnostic equipment, patient monitors, power supply boards (with repair traceability)
- Building and home automation — alarm control panels, KNX boards, thermostats, lighting controllers, CCTV cameras
- Professional audio — power amplifier boards, mixers, power supply boards for PA systems
- Commercial appliances — control boards for ovens, dishwashers and catering equipment
Types of Repair Work
We carry out SMD micro-soldering on components of any size, down to 0201 packages and BGA chips with hundreds of balls. We use professional soldering stations, stereo microscopes, no-clean flux, lead-free (RoHS) solder paste and a thermal camera to pinpoint hot spots during diagnosis.
- SMD soldering and desoldering of resistors, capacitors, inductors, diodes, transistors and ICs
- BGA reballing with dedicated stencils for CPUs, GPUs, memory chips and controllers
- PCB trace repair for traces broken by corrosion, overheating or mechanical damage
- Electrolytic capacitor replacement for bulged or leaking capacitors (a frequent cause of faults)
- Post-corrosion cleaning for boards damaged by liquids or harsh environments
- Advanced diagnostics with oscilloscope, ESR meter and short-circuit-protected power supplies
Subcontract Work and Reverse Engineering
For businesses and service centres, we offer subcontract work in micro-soldering, BGA rework, prototype modifications, ECOs (Engineering Change Orders) and small production runs. On request, we also take on reverse engineering projects for simple boards, reconstructing the circuit diagram (in compliance with intellectual property law and only for boards the client legitimately owns).
Among the power boards we work on most often are those from solar power systems: find out about our dedicated solar inverter repair service. To find out how to send us the board from anywhere in Europe, see our shipping and returns page.
Diagnosis Always Free
Ship the board to our workshop in Ivrea, Italy, with a brief description of the fault. Diagnosis and quote are always free and without obligation. Outbound shipping is always at your expense; if you decide to proceed, return shipping is included in the quote, otherwise it's at your expense. Typical turnaround: 3-7 working days depending on complexity.
Frequently Asked Questions About Circuit Board Repair
Do you accept boards from anywhere in Europe?
Yes. We receive circuit boards from anywhere in Europe: just ship them to our workshop in Ivrea, Italy, with a brief description of the fault. Outbound shipping is always at the customer's expense; if you proceed with the repair, return shipping is included in the quote, otherwise it's at the customer's expense. With courier shipping, distance doesn't significantly affect turnaround within the EU, though customs clearance can add time for shipments from the UK or Switzerland.
Do you repair boards without a circuit diagram or documentation?
Yes. In most cases we work without the manufacturer's technical documentation: we locate the fault through inspection, bench measurements, oscilloscope, ESR meter and thermal camera, tracing it to the faulty component even on multilayer PCBs.
What kind of work do you carry out on boards?
SMD soldering and desoldering (down to 0201 packages), BGA reballing and rework, repair of broken PCB traces, replacement of electrolytic capacitors, IGBTs/MOSFETs, ICs and connectors, post-corrosion cleaning after liquid damage, and advanced component-level diagnostics.
Do you carry out subcontract work for businesses and service centres?
Yes. We offer micro-soldering, BGA rework, prototype modifications, ECOs (Engineering Change Orders) and small production runs for businesses, workshops and service centres, with the option of an ongoing working relationship.
How much does the repair cost and how long does it take?
Diagnosis and quote are always free and without obligation. We tell you the exact cost before starting work, and you decide whether to proceed. Typical turnaround is 3-7 working days, depending on complexity and parts availability.
