LIGHTWEIGHT HIGH POWER ELECTROMOTIVE DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MAKING SAME

摘要

A lightweight high power electromotive device (10) and a method for making the same is provided. The method includes the step of laminating a plurality of stator sheets (45) to provide a stator inductor with integrated stator bars (15A), wherein the laminating includes the step of interleaving the sheets (45) to provide a uniformly distributed grain orientation. The method eliminates the need to handle a large number of components during manufacturing and further eliminates the need to encapsulate the inductor with an epoxy.
