If the Astartes gets hit by bolters, they will not be fighting again until they have some new bionics.

And if an Astartes is downed in battle to such an extent that they cannot fight, they are taken out of the fight to the nearest Techmarine to prevent the armors Machine Spirit from getting upset and malfunctioning.
