Hi, I need to disasamble a Delta Electonics laptop AC/DC adapter like this one:

Maybe it's glued togther or something.
How do I disassamble it without destroying the box?

Thanks in advance,
ME

Impossible without damaging the box. It is glued. But if you carefully cut at the sides using a fine saw, you can open it, repair and glue it back.

use an electric saw with some stopper in order to not penetrate more than some mm inside.
I already opened some PWS like this one and put them back

if you have one of those speed controlled drillers put a cutting circular fine tip and cut the box carefully at the joint between the 2 parts but do not go deeper than 2 mm as you will find the heat sink metal of the switching mosfet.After that try by hand with a fine knife slowly and you're done.
After the repair use SUPER ATTACK glue!!!

It worked for me!

Oh....yes as techie said you have to cut it out. I did it manually with a fine hexsaw blade...on my Panasonic cordless adapter to replace its transformer!!! But unfortunately the gap grew wide enough to be glued again!! I don't really know why they ignore a scew type box.......
