Claim 0:
1. A generator injection tool for injecting an adhesive into a generator that includes a rotor positioned within a stator having a stator vent, the rotor and the stator cooperating to define a gap, the generator injection tool, comprising:
a first carriage sized to fit within the gap;
a tube guide attached to the first carriage;
a tube partially supported by the tube guide, the tube including a first end and a second end, the second end movable between a first position in which the second end is outside of the stator vent and a second position in which the second end is positioned within the stator vent;
a first motor coupled to the tube guide and operable to move the tube between the first position and the second position;
a controller operable to selectively activate the first motor to position the second end of the tube in the second position within the stator vent; and
an adhesive source operable to move the adhesive through the tube from the first end to the second end to inject a portion of the adhesive into the stator vent when the tube is in the second position.
