What Are the Different Types of Assembly Tools?

Computer assembly refers to the process by which a user assembles computer hardware into a working computer before the computer is used. Different users have different hardware requirements in computer assembly, but processors, motherboards, memory, hard drives, optical drives, graphics cards, sound cards, monitors, speakers, power supplies, keyboards, mice, etc. are essential.

(1) Discharge the static electricity on the human body before installation, and touch the grounded electrical conductor with your hand, such as the grounding equipment such as a water pipe. If possible, wear an anti-static ring.

(2) Check each part of the computer. One is to check whether the parts are complete, and the other is to check whether the appearance of each part is damaged. These problems can cause the computer to work erratically or even to fail.

(3) Prepare a variety of installation tools, such as a Phillips screwdriver, flat-blade screwdriver, needle-nose pliers, and tweezers. It is best to prepare a small utensil to hold the screws and some small parts to prevent loss.

(4) Handle various parts with care and do not bump them, especially hard drives. Install the motherboard stably, and at the same time, prevent excessive pressure from causing deformation and even damage to electronic circuits on the motherboard.

(5) Prepare a piece of insulating foam (the foam is in the box of the motherboard) to place the motherboard. Install the CPU and memory on the motherboard first, and then install the motherboard into the chassis. ^[1]

1) Open the case and install the power supply in the case.

1.Screw cutter

The most basic tool for assembling a computer is a screwdriver. It is best to buy a magnetic screwdriver, which will be convenient when installing various components. Most of the accessories in the computer use a "T" screwdriver. One of the advantages of using a magnetic screwdriver is that it is easy to catch the screw for installation in a small space.

2. Needle-nose pliers

Another useful tool for building a computer is needle-nose pliers. When the screws cannot be screwed, it is much more convenient to use needle-nose pliers, and when some wires are too long, it is convenient to cut them short.

3. Tweezers

Tweezers are especially handy when removing small screws and plugging wires in tight spaces. Tweezers can also be used to clamp objects that fall into the dead corner of the chassis, and can also be used to set jumpers on the hardware.

4.Multimeter

Multimeter is used to check voltage and troubleshoot during installation. ^[3]

1) Prevent static electricity, especially during winter operation. Static electricity is the biggest killer in the process of computer assembly. To remove static electricity, wash your hands with running water or wear a special electrostatic discharge bracelet and gloves.

2) Prevent liquids from entering the computer, especially when the computer is assembled in the summer, to prevent sweat from dripping on the computer components, causing damage to the computer components.

3) Use the correct installation method. Do not use rough installation. Do not use brute force when fixing the board.

4) The tools for computer assembly cannot be placed randomly. During the assembly process, handle each part gently, being careful not to hit the ground.

5) Before you assemble the computer, you must carefully read the instruction manual for the motherboard, CPU, and various components to understand the main points of these components. ^[2]
