         HMI Lighting Repair

We go beyond component level repairs; we go from the core of the PCB (Printed Circuit Board), to the surface of the PCB. We test for any carbon debris, metal oxides, foreign material or any other conductive debris on the surface of the PCB, which can cause intermittent shorting of circuits or even arcing. We also test for copper foil & plating breakdown (copper foil & solder cracks) at plating holes and circuits (see picture below). So, not only do we repair to the component level, we repair any breakdown problems on the PCB that would cause a repeated failure on your lighting equipment. A PCB is an insulator which is made up of FR-4 (Flame Resistant 4) epoxy-glass laminate material with a composite of a resin epoxy reinforced with a woven fiberglass mat, with plated through holes and circuits. We have over 30 years experience in troubleshooting to the component level and 11 years experience in PCB manufacturing at a lab chemical and metallurgical process engineering level.  Galaxy Repair Service is the only Repair Center you will need for all your Lighting Repairs & Support!
