iPhone XR back glass replacement by laser separating machine
First, place the iPhone XR in the laser work area. This work area is composed using an automatic positioning device that puts the phone on it automatically adjusts to the best position.
Second, adjust the focus of the laser head. We do this with the help of the focal length stick. Place the focus bar between the laser head and iPhone XR, and then fix the position of the laser head to complete the focal length adjustment.
Third, select the corresponding drawings. We find the XR in the drawings of the iPhone back glass. Drawings in the machine are updated in time. Once a new model is released, we will draw the latest models for the first time.
Fourth, click Figures to start the laser separation. We can observe the inner workings through the window on the machine. Or you can go do something else to let the machine do this job by itself.
Removal of the iPhone XR broken back glass
When the laser machine has finished scanning, we take the phone out. You can see that the laser has removed the blue color on the back glass of the iPhone XR for the most part. This also means that the glue between the back glass and the mid-frame has been removed.
Before removing the broken glass, we need to put on protective gloves and glasses.
First of all, we need to put a protective film on the iPhone XR screen first. Since this phone does not have a screen protector, there may be glass scratches on the screen when it is repaired.
In addition, we used a focus stick and gently cracked the back glass into multiple small pieces for removal.
Finally, we removed the rear glass bit by bit with the help of a blade and a sharp knife. When removing the wireless charging area, you can use the card to slowly scratch away.
Clean the glue on the iPhone XR mid-frame
After the glass is disassembled, we need to clean the mid-frame next. First, we use a sharp knife to scrape the glue off the edges.
Then use alcohol or detergent to wipe away the black dust. Note that the use of liquid in moderation, if too much liquid may penetrate down from the wireless charging area or camera area.
After all the black dust has been cleaned, we can see that the mid-frame has become very clean. Although there are still traces of glue on the surface, this also helps us complete the iPhone XR back glass replacement perfectly.
Installing the new iPhone XR back glass
We follow the marks on the mid-frame and apply glue to its edges. This helps us to fix the new back cover glass like the original.
After applying the glue, we took out the new iPhone XR blue back glass and put it to the mid-frame.
Then use the four fixing clips to secure the phone’s four sides and wait for the glue to dry.
The glue has completely dried, and we remove the fixing clips. You can see that the iPhone XR back glass replacement works perfectly.
If you happen to own a laser, how much do you think the iPhone XR rear glass replacement cost? It’s a lot of fun.
