Troubleshooting
Systematic fault isolation across robots, PLCs, networks, safety circuits, drives, and field devices—without parts-cannon diagnostics.
- Emergency response
- Intermittent faults
- Root-cause analysis
Industrial automation support · Southeast Michigan
When production stops, we get it moving.
Hands-on troubleshooting, programming, and commissioning for robots, PLCs, controls, and the systems between them.
01FANUC robots
02Allen-Bradley PLCs
03Industrial networks
04Downtime recovery
Field support that solves the actual problem
Controls support built around uptime.
One technical contact from the first fault description through a stable production handoff.
Programming
Robot and PLC changes, recovery logic, sequence improvements, HMI updates, and clean integration between controls platforms.
- PLC logic
- Robot programs
- HMI changes
Commissioning
Startup support, I/O verification, motion checkout, safety validation support, debug, and production handoff.
- Startups
- System integration
- Production launch
Preventive support
Controls backups, risk reviews, recovery planning, and targeted improvements that reduce the odds of the next line-down event.
- Backups
- Risk review
- Support planning
Cell-wide capability
The robot is rarely the whole problem.
Modern downtime crosses boundaries. Support covers the logic, motion, communications, safety, and field hardware that make the entire cell work.
Robotics
FANUC R-30iB / Plus, CRX, recovery, mastering support, I/O, programs, and cell integration
PLC + HMI
Allen-Bradley Logix 5000, ladder logic, structured text, sequence, HMI, and interface debug
Industrial networks
EtherNet/IP, distributed I/O, device communication, remote I/O, and handshake troubleshooting
Machine controls
Safety devices, servo and VFD systems, IO-Link, pneumatic controls, sensors, and production data
A direct response process
Less handoff. More useful information.
Describe the failure
What stopped, what changed, and what the machine is doing now.
Establish the path
Remote triage when useful, then an on-site plan built around the evidence.
Restore and verify
Correct the fault, validate the sequence, and confirm stable production.
Independent controls support
Built for manufacturers who need technical depth without layers of overhead.
Siebert's Automation Services provides practical robot and controls support to production teams across Southeast Michigan. The focus is simple: understand the machine, find the failure, communicate clearly, and leave the system better documented.
Request support
Start with three facts.
01 What machine or process is affected?
02 Is production fully stopped or partially running?
03 What changed before the fault started?
Line down?
Have the controller fault, HMI message, and recent maintenance history ready. That evidence shortens the path to recovery.
