How Our Technicians Complete Your Repair

Microscope Surface Inspection

The technician inspects the camera sensor under 40x magnification to ensure glass shards have not breached the primary optical aperture.

Micro-Thermal Adhesive Softening

Precision micro-directed hot air at 120C softens the factory glue ring around the metal bezel without heating internal electronics.

Shard Extraction & Dust Vacuuming

Damaged glass shards are picked out one by one with micro-tweezers; an anti-static optical vacuum extracts dust from the sensor bay.

Sapphire Lens Seating & UV Curing

A brand-new AR-coated sapphire lens is seated with industrial optical adhesive and cured under UV light for an airtight seal.
