Tools for welding keyboard on new cover?

Hello,

I have to replace the covers of my hp laptop because it is broken . But I need to keep the keyboard itself and mount it on the new cover.

I would like to know which tool I can use to make the plastic welding? (See the attached picture pls)

Could you help please? Thanks.

Hello,

So hereafter how I finally proceed.

To remove the keyboard I used a thermal blower. You have to move fast but it works well.

To mount in the new case I used a soldering iron along with bakering paper.

The soldering iron needs to be adjusted at the lowest so as not to be too hot.

The result is very close to the original.

Hi Rub B,

Yeah, this comes up frequently; there are a lot of manufacturers that attach their keyboards this way. It makes for a good connection between the keyboard and the case, but it's also a pain in the wazoo for those of us who have to replace one. I've dodged that bullet myself because I found a top case that came with the keyboard cheaper than the keyboard by itself, but I did look into it in preparation.

Generally there are two main methods of separating them; first is by using an X-Acto knife to cut the tops off, and the other is to melt them with a soldering iron. The X-Acto knife is cleaner, but the soldering iron tends to be faster.

As far as reattaching them, the quickest solution I saw suggested was with a hot glue gun. Place the keyboard down over the plastic stubs and everywhere there's a stub, put on a dab of hot glue. I'm told it worked well and held the keyboard securely. The approach I had intended to take was to get some of the leftover plastic rods from building a model car and using those as a kind of solder substitute to weld the plastic stubs with a blob of plastic back on top. The other thing I considered was finding a bunch of self-tapping screws small enough to go into the plastic and screw the whole thing down.

Those are the best ideas I came across; hopefully one of them will appeal to you and be workable for your repair.

Good luck; let us know how it goes!

Thank you very much Jerry for this smart recommendations and for taking the time.

I will consider them as serious fallback workarounds.

However, does anyone know how to weld close to the manufacturers way? Tools? Technics ?
