Using 3D printer bed to heat phone instead of heat pad

Dear iFixits,

My question is, have any of you tried using a 3D printer print bed to heat a piece of electronics for opening? Other than the usual caveats with handling hot things, is there anything else I should be aware of?

I need to open up my partner's Nord N200 to replace the screen. I've seen a YouTube guide where the repair person is using a heating pad set to 90 or 100 deg Celsius to loosen the adhesive. Now, I don't have a heat gun, I detest the imprecision of hair dryers, but I do have a 3D printer with very precise temperature control of the print bed.

If it's relevant, I have a Prusa MINI and the heat bed goes up to 100 deg Celsius in single degree increments. The print bed can stay at that temperature for a long time as it's intended to last through a multi hour print. The print sheet is a flexible piece of smooth coated steel and there are magnets under the print bed that keep the sheet in place.

Thank you all in advance!

Howdy there,

We've had people use 3D printers for softening adhesive for their phones/tablets. We have a tutorial for what you're asking for, which I will link here for your viewing. Just make sure that there is no residue (such as plastic) left on the print bed, be careful when heating your device, and naturally take it slow and reheat your device as needed.

Happy Repairing!

Hey, fabulous, thank you!

I admit, I should have looked longer for an answer/guide but I'm keen to start working on this phone asap.

I appreciate you taking the time to link the existing guide!
