摘要:
An information handling system housing is manufactured from a laminate material having a stainless steel exterior and magnesium interior that are encapsulated with injection molding. A thin sheet of stainless steel is formed to have a lip that meets against the magnesium and is secured in place with injection molding material. In one embodiment, an injection molding tool holds the laminate material in place to encapsulate the perimeter of the material with injection molding material and also activates an adhesive that holds the laminate material together, such as by applying pressure and heat to the laminate material.

A method for molding a part includes introducing a gas into a material that is in a liquid phase. A mold is then positioned in an intermediate position The material, in the liquid phase and including the introduced gas, is then injected into the mold. The mold is then positioned in a closed position such that the material that was injected into the mold is compressed by the mold.

A magnetic latching system selectively couples and releases an information handling system housing and lid by moving a magnet associated with one of the housing or lid relative to a ferrous metal in the other of the housing or lid to selectively apply magnetic attraction between the housing and lid. A latch retainer interfaced with the magnetic latching system retains the magnetic latch in a released position until the lid and housing approach a closed position and then allows the magnetic latch to return to a locked position, thus bringing the lid and housing to a securely closed configuration without slamming together due to the magnetic attraction between the magnet and ferrous metal.
