A method for connecting sheet metal parts (2, 2.1, 2.2) to form lamination stacks in which cut-outs (22.1, 22.2) are stamped into an electric strip that is coated with an activatable adhesive layer , more particularly a hot-melt adhesive layer, on at least one of its flat sides , sheet metal parts (2, 2.1, 2.2) with these stamped-out cut-outs (22.1, 22.2) are stamped out from the electric strip , and the stamped-out sheet metal parts (2, 2.1, 2.2) are stacked and glued to form lamination stacks , wherein before the sheet metal parts (2, 2.1, 2.2) are stamped out, the electric strip is embossed in a first sub-region (5.1), which produces multiple protruding spacers on a flat side of the electrical strip , a first sheet metal part (2.1) is stamped out from this first sub-region (5.1) and after this first sheet metal part (2.1) is stamped out, a second lamination part (2.2) is spaced apart from the first lamination part (2.1) by means of the spacers of the first sheet metal part (2.1) when it is stacked onto it the purpose of which spacing is to facilitate the detachment of the stacked and glued sheet metal part (2, 2.1, 2.2) into lamination stacks , wherein first cut-outs (22.1) are stamped out identically in the first sub-region (5.1) and in a second sub-region (5.2) of the electric strip , characterized in that , additional second cut-outs (22.2) are stamped into the second sub-region (5.2) in accordance with the number of spacers , which second cut-outs (22.2) are embodied to accommodate the spacers , and a second sheet metal part (2.2) stamped out from the second sub-region (5.2) is stacked either before or after the first sheet metal part (2.1) in such a way that when spacers of the first sheet metal part (2.1) are resting against this second sheet metal part (2.2), the second cut-outs (22.2) are positioned offset from these spacers . cut-outs (22.1, 22.2) are stamped into an electric strip that is coated with an activatable adhesive layer , more particularly a hot-melt adhesive layer, on at least one of its flat sides , sheet metal parts (2, 2.1, 2.2) with these stamped-out cut-outs (22.1, 22.2) are stamped out from the electric strip , and the stamped-out sheet metal parts (2, 2.1, 2.2) are stacked and glued to form lamination stacks , wherein before the sheet metal parts (2, 2.1, 2.2) are stamped out, the electric strip is embossed in a first sub-region (5.1), which produces multiple protruding spacers on a flat side of the electrical strip , a first sheet metal part (2.1) is stamped out from this first sub-region (5.1) and after this first sheet metal part (2.1) is stamped out, a second lamination part (2.2) is spaced apart from the first lamination part (2.1) by means of the spacers of the first sheet metal part (2.1) when it is stacked onto it the purpose of which spacing is to facilitate the detachment of the stacked and glued sheet metal part (2, 2.1, 2.2) into lamination stacks , wherein first cut-outs (22.1) are stamped out identically in the first sub-region (5.1) and in a second sub-region (5.2) of the electric strip , characterized in that , additional second cut-outs (22.2) are stamped into the second sub-region (5.2) in accordance with the number of spacers , which second cut-outs (22.2) are embodied to accommodate the spacers , and a second sheet metal part (2.2) stamped out from the second sub-region (5.2) is stacked either before or after the first sheet metal part (2.1) in such a way that when spacers of the first sheet metal part (2.1) are resting against this second sheet metal part (2.2), the second cut-outs (22.2) are positioned offset from these spacers . <EOS>
