Common Tools for Mobile Phone Repair

Mobile phones are already highly integrated products. Failures are often not something that Mobile Phone Repair Shops can solve. Replacing a component as a whole is a common repair method. So what tools are needed for mobile phone repairs? 

Commonly used mobile phone repair instruments and tools include mobile phone accessories, repair tools, testing instruments, repair instruments, etc. Let's take a look at the related repair tools.

1. Screwdriver:

When repairing a mobile phone, you need to use a Screwdriver to open the case. Different mobile phones require different specifications, generally including T5, T6, T7, T8, etc. Some models are also equipped with special screws and require a special screwdriver. In addition, you also need to prepare some small screwdrivers, starting from a flat head and a small torx screwdriver.

When opening the casing, select an appropriate screwdriver based on the type and specifications of the fixing screws on the casing.If used improperly, the slots of the screws may be flattened, causing slipping.

2. Tweezers:

Tweezers are tools commonly used in mobile phone repairs. They are often used to clamp wires, components, integrated circuit pins, etc. Different occasions require different tweezers. Generally, you should prepare one pair of straight head, flat head, and elbow tweezers.

3. Electric soldering iron:

During mobile phone repair, components on the circuit board often need to be replaced, which requires the use of a Soldering Iron, and the requirements for it are also very high. This is because the components of mobile phones use surface mounting technology, the components are small in size, highly integrated, the printed circuits are fine, and the pads are small. 

If the soldering iron is improperly selected, it is easy to cause human faults during the welding process, such as virtual soldering, short circuit or even damaged circuit boards. Therefore, try to use a high-end soldering iron, such as a constant temperature anti-static soldering iron.

4. Heat gun:

The Heat Gun is one of the most commonly used tools in mobile phone repair, and the process requirements are also very high. A heat gun is used for everything from removing or installing small components to large integrated circuits. 

In different occasions, there are special requirements for the temperature and air volume of the hot air gun. If the temperature is too low, the components will be soldered, and if the temperature is too high, the components and circuit boards will be damaged. Excessive air volume will blow away small components. At the same time, the choice of heat gun is also very important. Do not choose a low-end heat gun because of price.

5. Flux:

Welding of mobile phones requires the use of Flux to avoid false soldering or burrs on the solder joint surface.

6. Multimeter:

A Multimeter is a multi-purpose electric meter that can measure current, voltage, resistance, crystal diodes and transistor parameters. It is also a necessary instrument when manufacturing and repairing various communication products and other electromechanical products.

It is the most commonly used maintenance instrument in mobile phone repair. It mainly tests the voltage of key points of each part, the continuity of the circuit and determines the quality of the components.

Accessories commonly used during mobile phone repair are compulsory. In addition to these common tools, there are other Mobile Phone Repair Tools waiting to be discovered by everyone, let us continue to understand.
