They use a tool that looks like a hot air gun. It heats the plastic to the correct temperature and melts the filler material at the same time. Remember, welding is melting and fusing material whether it is metal, plastic, or glass. Sometimes they do what is called chemical welding. Then they coat the two pieces to be welded with a solvent that dissolves the outer layers. They mate the two pieces until the solvent evaporates. After the solvent is gone, the two pieces have merged along their edges and are "welded" together.
