STATOR COIL WINDING AND LEAD TERMINATION METHOD AND APPARATUS

摘要

Connection of stator coil lead wires to terminals with channels is accomplished using an industrial robot and tooling for guiding the lead wires into the terminal channels and for crimping the lead wire to the terminals before the wires are severed. Also, lead wire placing assemblies are provided with hooks at each end of a stator being wound for holding the start wires away from the stator pole pieces.
