Device for manufacturing a stator
The method for manufacturing a stator of an electric machine includes providing a lamination element extending over an annular sector, horizontally moving the lamination element towards a fitting zone, then angularly regulating the lamination element position, and connecting the lamination element to other lamination elements to define the stator.
1. A device for manufacturing a stator by stacking lamination elements, the device comprising:
a rail structure;
supports for the rail structure;
a dolly on the rail structure operable to traverse at least a portion of the rail structure;
a saddle connected to the dolly, the saddle complimenting an upper inner diameter of an at least one lamination element;
blocking elements arranged on opposed sides of the saddle for holding the at least one lamination element on the saddle between the blocking elements; and
a revolving support, arranged between the dolly and the saddle, operable to
angularly regulate positioning of the saddle.
2. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the blocking elements prevent separation of the at least one lamination element from the saddle.
3. The device according to claim 2 , wherein the blocking elements comprise clamps for clamping the at least one lamination element between the blocking elements.
