Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a stator for use in an electromechanical machine, said method comprising steps of:(a) providing a magnetically permeable core having conductive windings located in a plurality of parallel, axially extending winding slots, said stator further comprising first and second coilheads located at opposite axial ends of said magnetically permeable core;(b) applying an uncured resin material to said stator so as to be located over said conductive windings in said winding slots and inside surfaces of said coilheads in a sufficient amount to yield an insulative layer of predetermined thickness;(c) partially curing said resin material applied to said conductive windings;(d) applying a metallic material over said insulative layer to form a conductive layer in electrical communication with said magnetically permeable core, said conductive layer being located in said winding slots and on said inside surfaces of said coilheads; and(e) finish curing said resin material after said metallic material has been applied on said insulative layer.
