The LCD separator machine from OCAMaster is a fantastic device. This device is used for separating broken LCD screens from the rest of the cracked display. This works for iPhone, Samsung, or any brand of smartphone you might have. Older phones are typically the best type of phone to use this with, though you can do it with any phone.
The Need for an LCD Separator Machine
Many phones have damaged screens because glass is a very susceptible material. This is especially true with Samsung phones as they use a special type of screen where the material is attached to the digitizer -- and then glued to the lens. This presents a challenge when the lens gets damaged. So to avoid having to replace the entire display, we can simply remove the glass and preserve the phone's functionality.
Separation Methods
There are two ways to separate a broken LCD: frozen and hot separation. You can use hot separation by placing the broken LCD display on a heated plat for roughly one minute. The plate should be heated to 90 degrees Celsius. The glue will slowly melt between the glass and the display. Then, use a cutting wire to fully separate these two pieces. The other option is freezing LCD separation, which uses a freezer at below 150 degrees Celsius. Place your LCD display in the freezer for one minute. The glue will slowly unstick, so that you may then separate the LCD from the glass surface.
OCAMaster LCD Separator Machine
The OCAMaster 5-in-1 LCD repair machine does this whole process for you. Including an iPhone frame lamination with complete set molds, you can apply this device to any model of iPhone. It includes a built-in vacuum motor to separate the LCD and glue remover/polarizer remover.

The great thing about using this device is that it saves you needing to use the freezing/heated technique for removing your LCD screen. You can do repairs much faster on phones, and if you are a small business owner running a smartphone repair shop, this device must be on your equipment list. While LCD separators come in numerous types and functionality offerings, you'll need to think about a few basic things. First, which machine is best for your needs? How much is within your budget? Do you need an LCD separator for just a few phones, or many? Will you be using it for just one type of smartphone?
Price Factors
Price is of course a premium consideration in choosing an LCD separator. These devices cost as low as $50 and end at around $2500 depending on which features you choose. The average cost of a separator is $200. OCAMaster ships free to North America and Europe, so you can generally receive your item within just a few days.
