I have an amp card on our Haas that has gone down. They want $1000. to swap it out with one that is working. Does anyone know of someone that can diagnose and repair these for a decent price?

Haas has their own control. its not fanuc. but the control is not the issue its the amp for the servo motors.
I am really surprised that no one knowledgeable has started doing this for Haas amps. Seems like they could make an easy mint doing so.
Haas will sue the snot out of anyone and anything that attempts to undercut their effort to force customers into buying new machines.
I don't see how they could sue. I don't see this being any different than hiring a machine repair guy to fix a machine that's down. his service is the replacement of a broken part. not selling a part he made that is exactly like the oem part.
Hey CPilz,
I'll give it a go. I would need some information regarding the failure and any recent changes that could have caused the failure. I don't have a machine to test it on but I wouldn't charge anything until you have a working unit. If I can't find the issue then I would send it back free of charge. Let me know.
Thanks,
Skyler
It seems like no electtonic houses want to just repair what is broken. I have asked for that. They want to do a "rebuild" where they change out all capacitors and IGBT modules and any other active components. The problem is the parts and labor to do that are usually at least half the cost of a new drive. In the case of Haas, it seems to be equal to the cost.
