The model is not “glued”. Ansys is solving 1/4 of the model. The Symmetry item in the tree provides boundary conditions on the cut faces of the quarter model and creates a visual reconstruction of the full model, but it is just for display purposes. The small gap you show in the last image is not real, it's not a problem. In past versions, you could fix the appearance by entering a very small offset in the reconstruction parameters.
